"It's not an agreement with Zhuang Jihua, but thinking of the current situation, due to the successive victories in the war, the prestige of the Nationalist Government has risen, and Chiang Kai-shek's diplomatic and military victories have raised his prestige to a new height, and now he proposes to amend the constitution, he will definitely be resolutely suppressed by Chiang Kai-shek, and even if the Kuomintang and the youth party that supports the Kuomintang in the political council, as well as the forces controlled by local forces, including Zhuang Jihua, will not support it, so putting forward a bill that is doomed to failure, will it work?

Zhou EN noticed Deng Yanda's expression, so he asked with a smile: "Brother Choice, do you have any proposals?" ”

Deng Yanda nodded: "There is no doubt that this constitution should be revised again, but just came, is it appropriate at this time?" ”

Li Jishen suddenly remembered the recent public opinion, although Chen G's capture of Heze added a lot of luster to GCD, but after all, it was a counteroffensive led by the Kuomintang, and the important towns of Bengbu and Suxian on Jinpu Road were all recovered by Kuomintang troops, and Chiang Kai-shek's prestige was in full swing, and now he is launching an offensive politically? Is it appropriate?

"Brother Choice's concerns are also my concerns, but, Brother Choice, if Zhuang Wencao recovers Shandong, and then raises this bill at that time, the problem he faces is not greater. , М/"Zhou EN came to sigh softly, Yan'an asked for immediate action, it is best to put forward this bill in the political council before the recovery of Shandong, Zhou EN called back several times, hoping to postpone the time of the bill, but Yan'an believes that after the recovery of Shandong, Chiang Kai-shek's prestige will rise further, and it will be even more uncertain at that time.

It must be noted that the Senate is not the Senate of the House of Representatives of the United States or the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, and the bills and resolutions of the Senate are not binding on the Nationalist Government.

"Enlai" My opinion is that the constitutional issue should be postponed for the time being...... Deng Yanda said after deliberation: "My opinion is that what we should put forward at this stage is a draft plan for the political participation council, we do not have a parliament, the political participation council should become our parliament, and the national government's political participation council should have legislative power like the Chongqing political participation council." ”

Among all the political participation committees from the central government to the local government, the Chongqing Participation Council is an exception, and the Chongqing Participation Council has considerable legislative power, although it is not as powerful as the US House of Representatives, but it is not a decoration like the Participation Council of the Nationalist Government, and the members of the Chongqing Participation Council are not appointed by the government, but are elected by the people, and the government has no right to recall them unless they violate the law.

Many members of the Nationalist Government asked to run for Chongqing political members, but to their dismay, they were not even qualified.

Zhang Lan, Shen Junru, and Luo Longji of the Democratic Political League also intended to change the draft of the political participation committee, imitating the Chongqing political participation committee, and for this reason, Zhang Lan and Luo Longji publicly expressed a similar view in the newspaper, but this view was not supported by the GCDFO and Mincao at that time, because these two parties believed that the Chongqing-style political participation conference could not limit the dictatorship of the Kuomintang.

"My idea is not very successful...... Deng Yanda looked at Zhou Enlai and Li Jishen, the latter's expression was a little puzzled, and he said a little apologetically: "It is precisely because of immaturity" that he has not yet discussed with Ren Gong, nor has he discussed it in the party. ”

At this point, he paused slightly, and then continued: "However, EN, due to the recent successive victories, a considerable number of political participants have given hope to Chiang Kai-shek, measuring our strength in the Political Council, without the assistance of Zhuang Jihua, this bill could not have been passed, rather than let the bill be vetoed, it is better not to mention such a bill, and shift the target to the Council itself, the Council can no longer be a façade, I believe that such a proposal will be supported by the majority of the members of the Council*......"

The bill will not be passed, and this judgment is also the same, but Yan'an's request ,......。

Zhou En was a little embarrassed, he frowned: "In order to overthrow the Manchu rule, the general manager launched ten uprisings before and after, and finally succeeded, choose my brother, Chiang Kai-shek is more powerful than the Manchus, we must be prepared for a long-term battle." ”

At this time, even Li Jishen frowned, he glanced at Zhou En with some dissatisfaction, and Deng Yanda raised his eyebrows: "Come, revising the constitution is a work that takes a long time, and it will probably take several years to select personnel alone." ”

"The Central Committee of our Party believes that the current constitution is an important basis for guaranteeing Chiang Kai-shek's dictatorship, and once we propose it, Chiang Kai-shek will definitely veto it, so that we can educate the people and make those who still have illusions about Chiang Kai-shek sober......," Zhou En solemnly put forward their purpose.

"Just come, choose a life" Li Jishen also interjected at this time: "Our two parties have an agreement to support each other in the political participation meeting, but EN came to your party's judgment is only unilateral, but what if Chiang Kai-shek agrees to amend the constitution?" But he could maneuver with the list of members of the Constitutional Council, the simplest of which could be, delay. It's a time of war, and this reason is perfectly justified*......"

"Ren Gong said extremely ......" said the Yan Da interface: "On the contrary, if the political participation conference is amended, the goal is much smaller, the concentration is much more concentrated, and with the Chongqing political participation meeting as a reference, the feasibility of success is extremely great, so I suggest that the proposal to amend the constitution be slightly delayed, and the draft of the Senate should be changed first, this time initiated by our party with the assistance of your party." ”

"The primary purpose of political reform is to change Chiang Kai-shek's dictatorship, and the constitution is the key." Zhou EN came to persuade bitterly, the attitude of the Central Committee is very resolute, asking them to unite with the main party of the Democratic Party and propose to the Kuomintang to amend the constitution, the people are an important force in the political participation committee, and Deng Yanda and Li Jishen have a major influence in the country, and their attitude is very important.

"I agree with your party's opinion, but it's too early to propose amending the constitution" Deng Yanda still disagreed, he shook his head and said: "EN come, you just said that Chiang Kai-shek is more powerful than the Qing government, so we should be more clever, amending the constitution is a frontal attack, and changing the draft to participate in the political conference is a roundabout." ”

"That's right, EN, I'll do it." Li Jishen also understood at this time that Deng Yanda had actually been planning a political offensive, the reason was very simple, Mincao had just been established, and no major things had been accomplished.

Zhou En hesitated to take a look at the two of them, and seeing that the two of them were resolute, he thought about it and nodded: "Okay, I'll report to the Central Committee, but I hope we still coordinate our actions." ”

Deng Yanda and Li Jishen understood what Zhou En meant, that is, he tactfully advised them not to take action for the time being until they got a reply from Yan'an.

Sending Zhou En away, Li Jishen and Deng Yanda did not go back to the small building, but walked along the path to the small huā garden in the backyard, at this moment the sun has dissipated the last scorching heat, and the hazy night is coming, but the scorching heat in the air is still there, and the wind blowing from the Jialing River is still steaming.

After walking for half a circle, Li Jishen opened his mouth and asked, "Choose a life, are you sure?" ”

"If Zhuang Wencao cooperates, I am 100% sure." Deng Yanda replied.

"Zhuang Wencao cooperates? What does this have to do with him? Li Jishen stopped and looked at Deng Yanda in wonder and surprise.

Deng Yanda smiled lightly, Li Jishen was a little arrogant, in his opinion, Zhuang Jihua's strength is mainly military power and finance, not to mention military power, financial power is represented by Mei Yuntian and Zhang Jingjiang, these two people can be said to be the God of Wealth of the Republic of China, and the factory that moved in the interior is completely supported by the two of them to tide over the difficulties and develop and grow. But what about politics? Li Jishen believes that Zhuang Jihua is just another Chiang Kai-shek, just look at Chongqing under his rule. More importantly, Zhuang Jihua has no power in the central government, except for the military, of course.

"Ren Gong, you underestimated Zhuang Wencao." Deng Yanda smiled and explained: "Zhuang Wencao presided over the development of the southwest, the local forces in Sichuan were deeply affected by it, Zhang Lan and they were deeply affected by it, after Liu Xiang's death, Zhang Sike and Qiao Yifu also leaned towards him, with the inclusion of Yunnan and Guizhou in the development of the southwest, the people of the two provinces were almost wiped out by him, if he opened his mouth, the political participants of the two provinces would support it, and the southwest development team had a large number of professors from Beiping, Shanghai and Nanjing, who respected him very much, and affected Ma Yinchu and Liang Shuming. His influence has far exceeded our estimates.

*……”

In the end, Deng Yanda's tone became a little regretful, and now he felt even more deeply sorry for Zhuang Jihua for not joining Mincao, if he joined, Mincao's influence and strength would increase several times.

However, Deng Yanda has said similar things several times, Li Jishen didn't think so, and this time it was obviously the same, but he didn't marry so much.

"Do you want Hyunchu to talk to him?"

"The war is important, so don't use these responsibilities to distract his heart" Deng Yanda shook his head and said: "In two days, I will cross the river to visit Old Man Mei and Zhang Jingjiang." ”

Mr. Mei and Zhang Jingjiang are Zhuang Jihua's spokespersons in the political meeting, but the relationship between them is difficult to define by superiors and subordinates. Among the two people, Old Man Mei is more like a banner or spiritual leader, and Zhang Jingjiang is actually responsible for liaison and coordination.

Zhang Jingjiang didn't have a good impression of Deng Yanda, he always thought that Deng Yanda was too radical, but he still accepted Zhuang Jihua's decision to support them, and secretly provided them with some funds.

Similarly, Deng Yanda also had a deep understanding of Zhang Jingjiang and knew that it would not be easy to convince this man, so Deng Yanda made full preparations, not only writing a detailed draft change plan, but also envisioning various problems.

Looking at the two old men in front of them, and their puzzled eyes, under the shade of the trees in this small courtyard, they temporarily escaped the scorching sun, but the rolling waves were still there, and the air was so dull that people were a little breathless. In the distance, there was a burst of majestic military music in the barracks, and it seemed that news of victory had come again.

"Turn on the radio."
