Chapter 879: Sino-German Military Cooperation
Chapter 879 Sino-German Military Cooperation
The most important thing is how you lead the country!
Wang Hengyue has undoubtedly succeeded in this regard.
There is no doubt that he is a great dictator, he holds the fate of the whole country in his hands, and he makes decisions that no one can disobey in any force.
But he also promoted China's democracy in the midst of a dictatorship.
He allowed the people to assemble, allowed the press to be free, and allowed his own people to make any statement, including criticizing him as a great president, and even scolding him to his face.
It's a country where citizens can do whatever they want and say whatever they want without breaking the law. Even if these words sound very outrageous.
His Grand Presidential Palace, on request from any group and with permission, is free to visit except for important core departments. Children in almost all schools in Nanjing have visited this highest center of power in China.
He controls the Congress, and when he makes decisions that affect the fate and future of the country and the nation, the only thing the Congress can do is to pass them, but apart from these most important decisions, the parliamentarians are free to put forward bills.
There was even a situation where a congressman impeached President Wang Hengyue, when everyone thought that the president would be furious, but nothing happened.
The impeachment failed, Wang Hengyue quietly invited the congressman to a meal, and just when the congressman was panicked and overwhelmed, Wang Hengyue said something meaningful:
"I know, you think I'm a great dictator, so you impeached me. But on a ship, there must be a person at the helm who has set the general policy of the country, and the ship will be easy to leave. I'm a dictatorship because I know what's going to happen, what the fate of the country is going to be, but you don't know, you don't know. When the great upheaval is over, I will give Congress more power, and I will even give it back to the country. β
The congressman didn't quite understand the meaning of the president's words, but he heard the sincerity in the president's words.
This is democracy in a country of great dictators.
And in this country, if there are still power institutions that also have huge powers, then it is not the military unification, nor the central unification, but the Independent Commission Against Corruption and the ** official.
The ICAC can investigate any individual or entity they wish to investigate. In the past few years, the Independent Commission Against Corruption has cracked more than 1,000 ** corruption cases and arrested more than 2,000 officials involved in the cases. It seems like a huge number, but in fact, compared to a country that is that big, this number is very small, very little
It's not that they don't dare to arrest it, but under the continuous blow of President Wang Hengyue, there have been fewer cases of corruption. Everyone knows that the president will never be merciful about these things.
Pete has seen the changes in China in his eyes, for him, it is a familiar country, but it is also a strange country.
The China he remembers is not like this
During Pitt's visit to China, the German side issued a secret invitation to China: China and Germany will select a group of outstanding young officers to be placed in each other's armies to hold some middle- and low-level positions, familiarize themselves with the situation of each other's armies, and lay a more solid foundation for future military cooperation.
Wang Hengyue was very interested in this proposal and quickly approved it.
It was decided that a one-year preparatory period would take place during which officers would be selected and studied Chinese and German to be dispatched in 1937.
Sino-German military cooperation has also entered a new period
On 29 September, President Pitt concluded his 12-day visit to China. During these 12 days, he visited several cities in China, including Nanjing, Shanghai and Beijing, and was warmly welcomed by the Chinese everywhere he went. β¦,
The night before he left, Wang Hengyue invited him again, this little brother of his own, and this time the invitation was completely alone, except for them, no one was able to participate.
This may be the last such conversation between brothers!
Wang Hengyue poured wine for Pete, and his words were a little sad: "Pete, I don't know when we can continue to drink and brag together like this in the future." β
"Yes, definitely." Pitt replied in the affirmative: "Believe me, my next visit to China will come soon, or if I lose my next election, then I will quit politics and come back here." β
Wang Hengyue smiled.
Will it? Maybe, maybe
"Remember, Pete, believe in yourself whenever it comes." Wang Hengyue spoke with a bit of meaning: "No matter how others affect you, once you make your own judgment, don't look back, no matter how others oppose you and don't understand you, you must firmly believe that you are right."
Pete didn't quite understand the meaning of Wang Hengyue's words.
Wang Hengyue didn't need him to understand at this time, all he had to do now was to wait, silently and patiently.
He believed that Pitt would become the most unique president in American history.
The greatest? No, Pitt won't be the greatest president, but he will certainly be the most unique. Whether it is good or bad, perhaps only history will have to evaluate
They had many memories together that night. What happened when they were in Rong County, what happened when they were in Sichuan. recalled that Wang Hengyue awarded Pitt the first foreign general medal, and recalled that Pete's good friend added him a saber.
Unfortunately, Pete did not see many of his good friends in China when he returned to China this time, and they were all busy in their respective posts, making final preparations for the great upheaval that was to come
"I will never forget you, king." Pete was a little drunk: "I remember everything you did for me, remember every minute we were together, remember who brought me all this, remember all of it"
"You will forget" Wang Hengyue also had a little wine: "Pete, many things will happen in the future, but there is one thing you don't forget, I am your friend, and China is your home." When you get frustrated one day, you have to go home and come back here. China will always welcome you to wait until we are all old, then go back to Rong County together, in the military camp before us, find two rooms to live, every day, just drink, chat, what national affairs, what national future, we don't care, no matter, leave it to others to do"
Pete suddenly burst into tears: "Wang, why do you want me to go back to the United States? I have a home here and I have friends. But in America, I had to marry a woman I didn't love, and I had to take a path that I never wanted to walk myself, but you brought it to me! β
Wang Hengyue didn't say anything
These two presidents of the two big countries drank all night and talked all night, and neither of them wanted to sleep, no one was sleepy, and it seemed that they wanted to vent all their emotions in this night
When it was getting dark, Pete finally couldn't hold on. Wang Hengyue asked people to help him to his room to rest for a while. There is no need to go through anyone here, there is only one person who has the final say here:
Wang Hengyue!
"Father, those attachΓ©s of President Pitt have been waiting outside all night." Wang Ding walked in and said.
"Let them wait." Wang Hengyue didn't care too much. This is its own territory, whether it is Pete or the president of the United States, everything is up to me.
"Yes." Wang Ding then said: "I have been admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy, and I will report the day after tomorrow." And I was told to learn German. ββ¦,
"I arranged it." Wang Hengyue's answer surprised Wang Ding. My father never asked about himself before.
Wang Hengyue smiled: "China and Germany are ready to cooperate, and a group of officers will be selected to go to Germany at this time next year, and I am ready to send you too." Chunxuan, you will be twenty next year, when you are your age, I have already succeeded in building the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and I have become an overseer, and I am very majestic, and now it is your turn! β
"My father's achievements are unmatched by others." There was no compliment in Wang Ding's words: "And the era in which my father lived was also very suitable for a person like my father." However, my father attached so much importance to Germany, did he think that Germany would still start a war like before? β
"Yes, definitely."
Wang Hengyue replied very affirmatively: "And the war is very close to us, according to the strength of Germany, it is not a difficult thing to defeat the whole of Europe, but there is still the United States." The power of the United States is not comparable to that of Germany. As soon as the United States intervened in the war, as in the previous European war, the defeat of Germany would already be predictable. β
"Fortunately, we have an Uncle Pete," Wang Ding said suddenly.
Wang Hengyue glanced at his son with some curiosity, he didn't expect his son to be keenly aware of this.
Yes, we also have Pete, this man, who will be the central figure in determining the future world war.
Victory, defeat; Justice and injustice, these are all secondary, and they have nothing to do with Wang Hengyue. His only concern was how much China would gain in the war.
The previous European war, despite the huge benefits that China gained from it, was not the whole story. When the real world war comes, that is all Wang Hengyue's layout.
It's the beginning and it's the end.
A superpower in the true sense of the word will emerge in this war, and a new world pattern will also emerge in this war.
No one and any force can stop Wang Hengyue's steps!
