0759 Press conference
President Meng raised a hand, shook his chubby paws, and signaled that he had said hello, "Friends from Tianjin, I have been away for more than three years, and I will officially meet you today." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½foβ
In fact, in this case, at most 20% of the people have seen President Meng, three years, enough vicissitudes, however, everyone still expressed a good impression of President Meng, who is not yet five years old, not only looks cute, but also behaves very steadily, which is in great contrast with appearance.
The crowd applauded and laughed, and the scene was not as tense as imagined.
Even Li Hongzhang, who was listening, was impressed by Xuan Yuemeng's aura, this is really not the performance that a person less than five years old should have, but President Meng is a Chinese prodigy, and everyone is used to it.
Princess Katrina Kafu and Liu Yuqing are used to seeing President Meng's performance, so they naturally don't feel anything, and Jiegege didn't see her for a while, and when she saw President Meng's aura in front of everyone, her heart was warm, even in her heart, Jiegege was towards the Qing court, but she hoped that President Meng could be better.
The first to ask a question was a French reporter: "Hello, Mr. President, may I ask, you have just occupied Liaoning in the Qing Dynasty, and some time ago you attacked Ryukyu and Taiwan, occupied the Jiangnan provinces of the Qing Dynasty, and attacked the Zhili region of the Qing State so quickly, do you want to overthrow the Qing government and control the whole of China yourself?" β
President Meng smiled: "The Qing government is a corrupt and incompetent government, from our Chinese army all the way unimpeded, it can be seen that they can no longer represent China, our Huaguo is the only representative of China, but, I do not want to overthrow the Qing government in one fell swoop this time, any change of times, is indispensable for soldiers and killings, but, who died?" It's my Han people, I don't want to do this, I want to live in peace with the Qing court, as for the future of China, I want to leave it all to the people to choose, not through the means of war, if the people think that I Xuan Yuemeng is not suitable, I will not use force to dominate China. β
Everyone was stunned, although some people felt that President Meng's words were somewhat exaggerated and some whitewashed Taiping, because President Meng had not stopped using troops in the past two years, but most people were still moved by President Meng, especially the Chinese, at least, since President Meng, there has never been such a statement from the person in power, this is at least for peace, an opening!
If it were any opponent of the current government, he would have stopped talking a word a long time ago, and the world would have been turned upside down, and it can also be seen from President Meng's march route that President Meng pulled the front line and threatened Beijing from several aspects, but only killed a small number of Qing troops, and did not launch a large-scale war of annihilation.
Those who know know that the Chinese army is short of ammunition and the supply of grain and grass is difficult, and those who don't know think that it is President Meng's benevolence and righteousness, taking the survival of the country and the rise and fall of the nation as his own responsibility, anyway, the public opinion of the whole country is now on the side of President Meng.
"President, can you talk about your analysis of the results of this entry?" It was a reporter from the Huacui Evening News who spoke, so the questions raised were relatively mild.
President Meng smiled faintly: "I don't care about the outcome of the battle, but this is already the result of the least number of deaths within my control, and I don't want our Han people to die of cannibalism." β
President Meng said, glancing in the direction of Li Hongzhang and Jie Gege.
Li Hongzhang felt ashamed, judging from President Meng's troop arrangement and the entire marching process, President Meng was more likely to use containment and harassment, and there was no large-scale hard encounter, the Qing army was not dragged down at all, if the two sides came up and touched each other, it was very likely to be the same situation when the Old Summer Palace was burned, but Xuan Yuemeng did not do this, and there was no line to advance to Beijing.
Li Hongzhang didn't know whether to say that Xuan Yuemeng was cunning, or whether to say that Xuan Yuemeng had compassion for others.
A trace of tenderness flashed in Jiegege's beautiful eyes, putting aside the hostile position, if you look at it purely from the perspective of an ordinary person to a decision-maker, Xuan Yuemeng is indeed a very good ruler, and being able to live under Xuan Yuemeng's rule is indeed much happier than under the rule of the Qing court.
"If the Qing government can ensure that all the people of the world live and work in peace and contentment, why is there a more than ten years of war in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom? If the Qing government was an enlightened government, why did it carry out the Westernization Movement for more than 10 years without any results at all, and they only studied the surface and did not have the spirit of complete learning. Of course, we want to make friends with all countries, but first and foremost, these countries must respect our country! As he spoke, President Meng clenched his fists and waved them, with the posture of a mustachioed classmate.
Representatives of Chinese business circles, students and workers unanimously applauded! Although President Moe's supporters are industry, commerce, workers, and students, who have not yet occupied a dominant position in society, President Moe's prestige is already very high, because he has the support of the peasants, even if he does not deprive the landlord class of interests, the policy of nationalizing the land and then subcontracting it to the common people for cultivation has crossed several historical stages, and it is a practice that is acceptable to all parties in this era.
"Therefore, we came to Zhili, just to ask the Qing government for an explanation, the matter was caused by them, naturally need to be pacified by them, if they can recognize the status of our country, can really do things for this country, and consider the interests of the people, I can recognize them, or I can give up the plan to attack Beijing, otherwise, Beijing is in my hands at any time!"
President Meng is not alarmist, even if the ammunition is insufficient, President Meng's Hua Jun definitely has this ability.
Li Hongzhang listened to President Meng's words, and couldn't help nodding secretly, Xuan Yuemeng's power has definitely reached the power to subvert a country, but he can still make a speech so calmly, and he can speak throughout the speech, without bragging, without pretentiousness, which is very rare.
"Therefore, we sent troops directly to the army this time, and it was really a last resort! Here, by the way, I would like to say to you British and French reporters that I have heard about the British in Yunnan, and although the Ma Jiali case occurred in Yunnan, it was still on the territory ruled by the Qing court, but you can consult with our Chinese government, and I suggest that you do not make a big deal about it, otherwise our Chinese country will interfere in accordance with the laws of the member countries of the South Seas Compact! President Meng's words were sonorous and powerful.
The British and French reporters present were shocked, they did not intend to ask this question, the question they wanted was whether the Chinese army would take action against the British and French after it entered Tianjin, and the British and French garrisons and warships in Tianjin were already on standby.
"President Meng, what do you mean, you use force against international friends, don't you need to explain it to your people? Aren't you a democratic government, but a government of yours? "The questions asked by the British journalists are very poignant." Aren't you already going to recognize the treaties signed by the Qing and other countries? β
President Meng waved his hand and replied to this guy in English, "Your Chinese language is very non-standard, much worse than my English, if so, I suggest you ask directly in English." β
A group of foreign reporters laughed for a while, and when a Chinese translator translated President Meng's words just now, a group of Chinese people also laughed, which made the British reporter feel embarrassed.
"My government, of course, is a democratic government, a government composed of 5 million Huacui party members and more than 50 million Chinese people, and every word we say represents the interests of the common people and the interests of the majority of the society, and this is the purpose of our Chinese society! As for the treaty that the Qing court originally signed with you, didn't I just make it very clear? The Qing court cannot represent our country! So, your question is to repeat nonsense, I don't know, my answer, this time, can you understand? President Meng replied with a full heart.
After listening to President Meng's answer, the Chinese applauded and applauded, Li Hongzhang and Jie Gege were very touched in their hearts, they didn't expect Xuan Yuemeng to be so tough, this is not to give face to the powers at all.
After a big battle with the British in Guangdong, in fact, from that time on, President Meng knew that if he was not beaten, the British and the French would not dare to do anything to him.
