Tang Shaoyi carved a few burned cars at the door, "They are all cars, because they are already a pile of scrap iron, I can't tell what brand of cars they are, but the license plate on the rear of the car is still intact."

Tang Shaoyi picked up the pitch-black license plate, wiped the carbon black on the license plate with his hand, and confirmed who the owner of the license plate was after just one glance.

There is no doubt that these cars that have become scrap metal are obviously from the presidential palace, reminiscent of what happened to Vice President Zhang Han when he escaped from the presidential palace, these cars are very likely to be the vice presidential guard cars in Zhang Sai's convoy, when these cars were stopped by the petitioning soldiers, and then Zhang Han abandoned the car and was escorted to the Capitol by the guards, but these special cars of the vice presidential guards did not slip away, obviously, they were taken to the Temple of Heaven, And it was burned down here, and eventually turned into a pile of scrap metal.

The black smoke that Tang Shaoyi saw outside the park just now was probably the black smoke released when the car burned, and now, standing near the wreckage of the car, he could still smell the pungent smell of gasoline and the stench emitted by the burning of the wheel rubber.

"Anarchic concubines."

Tang Shaoyi threw away the license plate, took a handkerchief handed over by the bodyguard, and wiped his hands. sighed.

Anarchism is often intertwined with despair, and what people need most is hope and confidence. As a bureaucrat who had served as the Minister of Foreign Affairs for a long time, Tang Shaoyi was well aware of the outbreak in Tsarist Russia that year, "the September Revolution. In that Russian Revolution, anarchism was rampant, and the bad scene caused by the proliferation of anarchism could be seen everywhere, and a large number of former government bureaucrats were executed by revolutionaries without any trial, in Tang Shaoyi's view, this was not so much the righteous revenge of the revolution, but the extreme venting of revolutionary sentiments at the bottom of society, which was manifested in the revolutionary means, that is, anarchism dominated everything. Even the leaders of the revolution did not dare to resist such sentiments, otherwise they would become the new opponents of the revolution.

Tang Shaoyi didn't want to be the target of the revolution, he decided to rush to Zhao Bei's side as soon as possible, only by Zhao Bei's side is absolutely safe, Tang Shaoyi also believes that Zhao Bei will not come here so recklessly without doing any emergency measures, at this time, only standing by Zhao Bei's side is safe.

Tang Shaoyi analyzed it well, when he saw Zhao Bei, he found that Zhao Bei was standing on the Temple of Heaven, and near him, there were some guards with submachine guns, several trucks were also parked nearby, and there were armed guards on the roofs of the cars, and even machine guns, but the muzzles of the guns were high in the sky, which was completely different from those Wehrmacht troops who carried out martial law tasks.

At this moment, Zhao Bei was holding the microphone to give a speech to the veterans, and there were several electric horns connected to the other end of the microphone.

"Warriors! Citizens! I know your situation, and I understand your feelings! To tell you the truth, I am also very angry, you are a peaceful petition, no violent means have been used, although there are inevitably some excesses in the petition march, but there is no threat to anyone's safety, it is in this situation that the government decided to send the regular army into the city to suppress it, this is indeed a distrust of you! I'm outraged about this!

However, as a citizen who has served as the head of state, I must also admit that in the face of the current situation, even if I am president, I will take some necessary measures to prevent the situation from deteriorating further, after all, the country cannot be chaotic, the society cannot be chaotic, and the interests of the people are above all else! So, in this respect, I can also understand the government's decision, but in my opinion, the government's decision is still too presumptuous, and at the very least, the president should consult with all sectors of society before issuing martial law.

"Now, I am here, I not only want to ask for your life, but I also want to bring you faith and hope, now you, we, what we need most are not money, but faith and hope! With faith and hope, no difficulty can defeat us! With confidence and hope, any enemy will be defeated by us! ”

What Zhao Bei said on the loudspeaker was basically what he said on the tape of Radio No. 1, but considering that the veterans at the scene had basically not heard that speech, it felt fresh to hear it now, and everyone's mood was further stabilized.

Tang Shaoyi also put his mind at ease, as long as Zhao Bei does not incite the veterans to continue to make trouble, then everything is easy to say, as long as Zhao Bei stabilizes the people's hearts here, there will be no excuse for the Capitol to take further military measures.

On this matter, Tang Shaoyi and Zhao Bei's position is basically the same, and he does not want to see the violence escalate.

Thinking of the task assigned by Li Yuanhong, Tang Shaoyi squeezed over to the Temple of Heaven, but there were too many people here, shoulder to shoulder, and he couldn't squeeze through at all, and he couldn't stand in front of Zhao Bei with the help of bodyguards, so in desperation, Tang Shaoyi could only shout.

"Zhenhua! Zhenhua! ”

Originally, there was no other person's voice at the scene except for Zhao Bei's voice, and Tang Shaoyi's shouting immediately made him the object of everyone's attention, and many veterans glared at Tang Shaoyi angrily.

Zhao Bei also noticed Tang Shaoyi, so he raised his left hand, pointed to the area where Tang Shaoyi was standing, and shouted a few times through the electric horn.

"Mr. Tang Shaoyi, the prime minister, is also here now, I think, he must have come on the orders of the government, and like me, Premier Tang also understands everyone's feelings very well, so please give way and let Premier Tang stand beside me, I want to say a few words to him."

As soon as Zhao Bei shouted this, the crowd immediately split into a road, although it was not wide, but it was enough for Tang Shaoyi to walk over, so Tang Shaoyi left the bodyguards in place, and only took a few assistants to the Temple of Heaven and stood in front of Zhao Bei.

"Premier Tang, now that the situation is chaotic, you actually only take such a few people to run around, your courage is much stronger than that of those members in the Congress."

When I met, Zhao Yuaner, set Tang Shaoyi's courage, crying was not a lie, but the arrival of Nuan Yi in the big truth, Zhao Bei was indeed very surprised, he always thought that Tang Shaoyi was not very bold.

Tang Shaoyi smiled bitterly: "As the prime minister of the government, in the face of such a tricky situation, I have to take a risk no matter what, not to mention, this time, I actually came here on the order of the president." As for the boldness, I don't dare to take it, but there are more people in the parliament who are more bold than me.

”

Zhao Bei also smiled, then restrained his smile, and said: "That's not true, but I've heard that before the martial law order was issued, there was a debate in the Congress, and in the end, the majority of the parliamentarians advocated the use of force to suppress the peaceful petition, so it seems that most of the congressmen are timid, and they are even afraid of a group of unarmed peaceful petitioners."

Tang Shaoyi's heart tightened, and he looked at Zhou again, but saw that the veterans standing nearby were all angry, obviously, Zhao Bei's words played a role in adding fuel to the fire, and at the same time, the veterans understood the fact that it was not only the presidential palace that advocated the adoption of military measures, but also the Congress.

No wonder Zhao Bei just said that he wanted to "ask for the people's lives." "Xi Shaoyi is only now reminiscing.

"It is true that some members of the National Assembly panicked in the face of the crisis in the city, but it should also be noted that there are also people who oppose the government's martial law order among the members of Congress, and they are quite numerous

Tang Shaoyi said a few words lightly, helping the congressmen disperse the firepower a little, and then changed the conversation, and said: "The congressmen were very happy when they heard Zhenhua's speech on the radio just now. It is said that the country is saved, so the president specially ordered me to come to Zhenhua and ask you to go to the Congress to preside over the meeting.

As soon as he said this, there was a commotion around.

"The Commander-in-Chief is here! He doesn't go to Congress! ”

"Who knows what kind of heart you rulers have? The commander-in-chief does not go! ”

"The Commander-in-Chief is with us! Always with us".

"Whoever dares to disadvantage the commander-in-chief, we will disadvantage his whole family!"

"The Commander-in-Chief is the Commander-in-Chief of the people, not the politicians of Congress! The commander-in-chief represents the interests of the people! Also on behalf of veterans' interests! ”

Seeing this scene, Tang Shaoyi knew that in this political game, the government has been completely defeated, and even if "decisive measures" are taken to disperse the crowd, I am afraid that it will not be able to clean up the people's hearts, and will only make more people stand on the opposite side of the government.

"Everyone, be quiet! Everyone, be quiet! Listen to me, listen to me. ”

Zhao Bei made a timely move to save Tang Shaoyi from the predicament pointed out by Wanfu, he pulled Tang Shaoyi to his side, pointed to the political premier, and said something to the veterans.

"There is actually some truth in what Premier Tang said. The reason why the people elect the government and government officials is that they expect the government to play a role in the political life of the country, to stand ahead of the people when the country is in crisis, to share the difficulties of the people, and to lead the country to prosperity and progress with policies that are approved by the majority of the people. At this time, as a representative of the people, it is of course necessary for me to go to the National Assembly and bring your voice to the National Assembly, so that all the members of the National Assembly and all the people can hear your voice and experience your hardships, only in this way can the society avoid division and the country remain united. Only then can the government regain the trust and respect of the people! ”

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone understood that Zhao Bei had agreed to go to the Congress, and Tang Shaoyi's hanging heart was relaxed, but Zhao Bei's next few words made his heart hang again.

"Since I went into the wilderness, I have lived in seclusion in Xishan for several years, not asking about politics, so I don't know much about some situations in society. How bitter is it? I really don't know these situations very well, and the Congress can't know better than I do, so I hope to select some veterans and military family representatives to go to the Congress together, so that you can speak in the Congress, talk about your own hardships and hardships, and win the sympathy and support of the parliamentarians, only in this way can the bottom of society and the upper level of society regain communication, and can the division of society be avoided

After speaking, Zhao Bei immediately asked the veterans around him to choose representatives, but Tang Shaoyi was dumbfounded.

Tang Shaoyi knew very well that Zhao Bei's doing this was actually tantamount to helping the petitioners gain the initiative, and at the same time finding a group of lifeless bodyguards for himself, and he fully believed that Zhao Bei would definitely not just select dozens of "public opinion representatives." Into the Congress.

As Tang Shaoyi expected, Zhao Bei's selection of "representatives of public opinion" was a full 1,000 people, most of whom were veterans with thick fists and arms, a few were their family members, and even a team of "boy scouts." After everyone assembled, they sang military songs, waved battle flags, and lined up in front of the Temple of Heaven, preparing to march into the Congress.

Zhao Bei took the red flag from a veteran, then walked up to Tang Shaoyi and said: "Premier Tang, let's go to the Congress, and please say hello to the Congress first, so as not to be stopped by the troops on the road, if it is stopped, how the situation will develop, I dare not guarantee." ”

Tang Shaoyi came to his senses, hurriedly instructed his assistant to go to the Congress, and decided to walk to the Congress on foot with Zhao Bei, no matter what, he also had to ensure that this team arrived at the Capitol smoothly, because he completely believed in Zhao Bei's words, this team must not be stopped by anyone, and the consequences of stopping it were very serious.
