Chapter 694: The General's Helplessness (Second Update)
Pi Runmin and Zou De are pinching each other, no one can adjust it, and the two gangs are getting into trouble, and it is getting bigger and bigger, and the key problem is the lack of a referee between them. The most suitable candidate for this referee is Guo Xing'a, Guo Xing'a wants to be a referee, but he doesn't want to take on the obligations of the referee, this matter seems to have entered a dead end. But Goxing Ake is not just a self-made general, he is also a traverser, and he can find another referee.
Guoxing's insistence on implementing the cabinet system and giving the cabinet absolute rights in spite of the opposition of the old ministry was to lay the foundation for China's democratic politics. He mentioned the matter of running a parliament 10 years ago, but the situation at that time was too special to be carried out, so he retreated to the second best thing and took scientific research and appointment as the basic mode of political operation. Now that time has passed, North Manchuria is no longer the wild place it was at the beginning, and the matter of the parliament can still be talked about again, and with the parliament, there will be this referee.
After waiting for a long time for the stars and the moon, the airship finally transported Saishana back, and the issue of Goxinga finally had someone to discuss. In fact, it is best to discuss this matter with Pi Runmin and Zou Degui, but at the moment, the two of them are inseparable, and they will definitely not agree to the suggestion of Guo Xing'a and a group of referees, so it is better for Guo Xing'a to do it himself. However, when Goxinga once again threw out the issue of parliament, Saishana still objected to it repeatedly, once again thinking that Goxinga was ill and messing around.
It is unprecedented for the people to appoint officials, not to mention how the central government should govern the localities, which is enough for a headache. Everyone is elected, so why should your central government interfere in local government affairs? And what is the quality of this elected official? Will he be able to take care of the place? Does he want to remove him if he does not carry out the decree of the central government? If it is recalled, will it be re-elected in the future, and the elected people are unreliable, will this endless tossing intensify the contradictions and cause popular unrest? There are still many things that have not been done in Northern Manchuria, and now it needs to develop at a high speed, and the local confrontation with the central government cannot be done.
And once the election is held, what will happen to the people who are now in power, this large group of local real power, if it is not done well, it will lead to a civil war. Although they will definitely not be able to do it, the government will be completely shut down, and North Manchukuo will be out of the devil if it is not vigorous. If these people participate in the election, what will they count! They are all in power, and this election has to be carried out by them, and if they do something, it is better not to vote for this election.
North Manchuria is not a small country, but a large country with a vast territory and a large population, and the composition of ethnic groups and beliefs is extremely complex. All factions were subdued by Guo Xing'a in Changchun, if the election is opened, these people will definitely follow suit, and if people with ulterior motives are allowed to grasp local power, will they plot to split the country? Not to mention other places, Usu Yaritaiken will be the first to make trouble, and then it will be a civil war.
And if everything is left to the people, it will inevitably threaten Goxinga's position in the end. Guoxinga gave the people power, but the people would not remember the general's good for too long, in case they betrayed their gratitude and suddenly attacked Guoxinga, the entire general's clan and all the aristocratic groups had to find a cool place to avoid the limelight, and they couldn't even save their lives. Guo Xing'a is willing, but the other nobles are absolutely unwilling, let the mud legs take care of them, that is not them!
"General, as soon as the atmosphere of this election opens, the country will inevitably fall into division and civil war, and this idea must not be moved!" Saishan'a is also bitter, he can't think about it all for a while, otherwise he can give Guoxing'a 10,000 choices.
"Not really! Europe and the United States have been electing for many years, and they have not seen any trouble! "Goxinga only thinks that Saishana is alarmist, democracy is the trend of the world, and where it is like he said, it is simply a flood and plague.
"Europe is mostly a small country with a sparse population and a large number of gates, so it has to be governed by this policy. And it's not like the general said that there is no chaos, France has been in chaos several times, the British have collapsed in all directions, and the United States has been antagonistic to the north and south, which are all lessons from the past! "Saishana has been overseas for many years, not to mention the former Wuxia Amon, he knows a lot about the international situation!
Cézanne's analysis of the origin of the European Parliament is very good, that is, a large number of nobles do not obey anyone, and there is no strong monarch who can suppress them, and they can't afford to fight, so they came up with the idea of everyone meeting to vote, and it is indeed immature now. The elections in France were carried out very early, and both the constitutional monarchy and the democratic republic were carried out, but they tossed and turned, and Paris revolted when it was nothing. There is no way to do it, I am not satisfied with the results of the vote, and I can't understand it, so I can only use my hands to open it.
The United Kingdom, which has a complex national composition, is even more lively, you also have meetings to quarrel, and I also have meetings to quarrel, and the results of our quarrels are different, so we can only separate and live separately. The United States has been divided, Ireland is still tossing, the Boers are endless, and Britain still has to calm the world down. The United States is a ready-made example, the South is unhappy with the policy of Congress, and directly passes it alone, which in turn leads to a war, and neither side is breaking the law.
North Manchuria does not have other people's traditions, but it has almost all the drawbacks of other people, if you don't know how to copy it, it will definitely be more lively than others. National separatism and independence, local confrontation with the central government, these things cannot be avoided by North Manchuria. Moreover, North Manchuria also involves a large number of vested interests, and if the election really starts, these people will also make trouble, and it will be even more lively.
"The European and American systems may not be superior*, but the strong ones are only strict systems, accurate calculations, and follow the way of Legalism. The generals have already achieved their strengths in restructuring North Manchuria, and there is really no need to learn from this election, it will only add to the trouble! "Sezanne summed it up very well.
"What Uncle Sai said is reasonable, but the council still has to do it, and we will do it in stages!" Guo Xing'a thought again and again, and was also frightened by Saishan'a, but he still refused to give up.
"Fifth Master, the election is really the way to take trouble, why do you have to go alone? Now is the time for you to take back power, so don't hesitate! "Saishana also felt that when it was time for Guoxing Agangang to be arbitrary, there should be no more elections.
"Believe me, this is the inevitability of history, we should take a step! If you don't agree, that's it! Didn't you let me be autocratic! I'll be a dictator once! Elections must be held! "Guo Xing'a's donkey temper has come up again, and he must do this.
In ten years, North Manchurian has changed a lot, but the overall quality and scientific and technological level of the people are indeed not enough to support the national election. There are still a large number of people who are ignorant, let them elect, can torture them to death, and the time is still not ripe for the whole people to participate in the election. Moreover, although North Manchuria has telegraphs, trains, and even telephones for hundreds of projects, the speed of information transmission is still a bit slow, and if a national election is held, it will definitely take a long time.
Guoxinga thought about it for a long time, and finally came up with a charter, and there must be a threshold for the election, and everyone can't be allowed to engage in any national carnival. The first is to pay taxes, people who have paid taxes of 100 yuan in the previous year must be eligible to vote, and taxpayers can enjoy the corresponding rights! People who live by receiving state assistance every day, there is no need for everyone to vote, and it is true to save some money to live. Of course, the tax law of North Manchurian is not very perfect, and there are some people who do not pay taxes on the face, and this part of the people is not poor, and they must also be included, so there is a second article, and people with fixed assets of more than 5,000 yuan can also participate in the election. Except for money! Academic qualifications also have to be considered, and people who can't read big characters really don't need to participate in the election, so with the third article, the academic qualifications need to be at or above high school. In view of the fact that some elderly people in North Manchukuo are not from orthodox education, there is a fourth article, and those who are equal to those with a high school degree also have the right to vote. Those who meet one of the above four conditions can participate in the election.
Saishan's words Goxinga still agrees very much, so this election should be held, but the people who are elected have other appointments. The legislators elected this time are only legislators, equivalent to the positions of the people's congress and the CPPCC, and they participate in government affairs, but they do not actually serve as officials. They enjoy certain administrative benefits, but they do not have any rights other than to supervise and balance the officials in power. If parliamentarians want to become officials, they must first resign from their posts and then take part in scientific examinations. Officials who want to be legislators have to resign and then run elections. Members of parliament are elected every three years, and the principle of progression is adopted, with members of the National Assembly elected by provincial councillors, provincial councillors elected by provincial councillors, and so on. Governments at and above the county level must set up parliaments, with supervision and checks and balances at all levels, and Changchun must set up a parliament, and the appointment of senior government officials, financial reports, and the passage of government decrees must all be approved by the parliament. Of course, Guo Xing'a still left a back door for himself, that is, the general can not only discipline the government, but also the congress, and the general still has the right to arbitrarily control the special period. As for when it is a special period, it is Guo Xing'a who looks at it himself.
The government is now busy with infighting, and Goxinga is also worried that they will interfere with it, so this election Goxinga directly notified the cabinet, and then promulgated the "Election Law" in the name of the general, and then ordered the garrisons to prepare for the election. At this time, Pi Runmin and Zou Degui all stopped, and even Luan Yu, Chen Bingxiang, Chang Zhenzhi and others who had fought in the previous struggle calmed down, and Guo Xing'a was going to clean them up. For so many years, the government was an independent kingdom, and Goxinga never interfered except for the occasional request to do something. The structure of the cabinet and the political system have not changed in any way over the years. Now that a congress has suddenly come out, everyone is a little scared.
Guo Xing'a mentioned this matter in Shanhaiguan when he was in Shanhaiguan, but it was directly vetoed by everyone. Now that the old matter of Guoxinga has been brought up again, in addition to the improvement of the actual situation in Northern Manchuria, I am afraid that he has also moved the mind of repairing the cabinet. Because according to the rules formulated by Goxinga this time, the cabinet can be watched by this parliament, although there are ways to deal with them, but after all, they can no longer do whatever they want.
Fortunately, everyone still has time, Guo Xing'a has been busy in Changchun for a while, and Japan's Tokyo city entry ceremony is almost ready, and Guo Xing'a must participate. Taking advantage of the time that Guo Xing'a went to Japan, the civil servants who pinched you to the death during this period of time have to work together to find a way!
