"My friends! When I learned of this incident, I was very heartbroken......" Roosevelt stood on the tank with the help of Patton and others, looked at the people below and said in a deep voice: "Actually, we can have a better solution." ”

"True! Your demands are reasonable, but now the entire American Federation is in crisis! Everyone is waiting for relief, and if everyone comes here to petition, what will become of our Washington?! ”

The people below were silent, and they watched the governor standing on the tank listen to his speech in silence.

"We can express our will, but we also have to understand the difficulties of the Federation! It's not that the Federation has done nothing, in fact, it is always a fact that we have been deepening cooperation with Manchuria during this period of time, sending everyone out to work, and trying to provide jobs for everyone, right?! ”

The people standing on the wetland nodded their heads, and Roosevelt shouted at them, "I don't want to criticize anyone, but this is the worst way to deal with it." I feel like we can do more, we can do better! ”

"Your request, the Federation already knows! Here I will assure you that I will work hard to get it done! Roosevelt looked at the people below and said solemnly: "Swear by my reputation and personality!" I will do my best to solve everyone's problems! ”

As he spoke, Roosevelt paused and continued to smile: "As General Pershing said, this time I have discussed it with our old friend 'Tiger of the Far East'!" He decided to offer us the first 20,000 jobs, which will be gradually increased. But I hope you can make a list, and I hope that the first people to go will be the most in need! ”

"And when these jobs are offered, we will provide them with loans in the name of the New York State government to support their lives. It would then be gradually deducted from his salary for his work in Manchuria. Looking at the people below, Roosevelt said in a deep voice.

"If all the salaries that were not paid until 1945 were cashed in now, it would certainly not be done. All we can do is to provide as many jobs as possible for everyone, and then use the salary as collateral to make loans to ensure everyone's livelihood......"

Although Roosevelt's plan did not satisfy these retired soldiers, it was better than the president who squatted in the White House and sent troops to expel him?! And if you think about what Roosevelt said, it is not unreasonable, it is certainly impossible to cash it all in the current Federation.

Provide work and life loans to guarantee everyone's livelihood. As long as there is this promise, then the purpose will not be achieved?!

"Let me say a few words!" At this time, Tu Qianjun stood up. smiled and said in a deep voice to the crowd below: "I can honestly tell you that my Manchuria is now being developed. We need people from all walks of life, and when I heard about you, I asked the governments of the three eastern provinces to research and verify and communicate with colleagues in other provinces. ”

"The study confirmed that in addition to the three eastern provinces, Xinjiang, Mongolia, Gansu, Qinghai and Ningxia all need infrastructure construction. The area of these four provinces, plus the three eastern provinces, has a total of more than 7 million square kilometers of land that needs to be built for infrastructure! Think about how many jobs we need! ”

Hearing Tu Qianjun's words, the people below couldn't help but gasp with a "hiss~"! Although the United States is not small, they can naturally guess that a large number of people will be needed to participate in infrastructure construction when they hear about such a vast area!

"I have entrusted the Zhi Gong Court to help with the recruitment, please draw up the list of the first batch of 20,000 people. And attach the specialty, we will arrange the work according to the specialty. Incidentally. It is best to draw up the list of the second and third batches. After we have arranged the work of the first batch of people, we will arrange the second and third groups to go to China to work! ”

At this time, the petitioning crowd was finally reassured, and the "Tiger of the Far East" representing the three eastern provinces personally confirmed it, plus the assurances of Governor Rooschersut-Roscher and the veteran general Pershing, who were running, and everyone was extremely convinced of the matter.

Then Tu Qianjun and Roosevelt jumped out of the car, explained some relevant problems and told some details to the people who gathered around, and the people dispersed slowly.

And at this time. Patton stood respectfully in front of the old general, whom he most respected, and said nothing.

"Barton! I know you're a good soldier, and in fact even Mike is too I insist you're better! Pershing looked at Patton and said in a deep voice: "But this incident will definitely become a stain on your military career!" ”

Listening to the words of his most revered general, Patton was silent for a few moments before responding, "I'm a soldier!" Generals, soldiers should take obedience to orders as their duty! The army of the Federation must obey the will of the President of the Federation! ”

"That's why I say you're a good soldier!" Old Pershing smiled and patted Patton on the shoulder and asked softly, "If you were given another chance, would you still choose to bring troops over?!" ”

"I will! Checkmate! Patton replied in a deep voice, "I said it, because I'm a soldier!" ”

Old Pershing smiled a smile of relief. Helped Barton pull his collar and said in a deep voice: "Good job!" Lad! ”

With that, he turned and left. At this time, the crowd gradually dispersed, and Old Pershing slowly stepped into the car and left here under the reverent gaze of everyone.

Pershing Sr., Roosevelt, and Tu Qianjun then extended their condolences to the injured policemen, soldiers, and petitioners lying in the hospital. The next day, he left Washington and returned to his hometown.

Although Hoover in the White House was secretly angry at the arrival of Roosevelt and Pershing, he was always happy to be able to send those "pigs" away. Then, without hesitation, he led his Republican Party to the states and began his speech canvassing journey.

He put on short leather shoes and a stiff collar and tried to walk out into the crowd with a moderate attitude.

But I have to say that he can come back alive. Count lucky. The worst is in the city of Detroit, where 250,000 people need relief. As soon as he arrived at the station full of confidence, the people who were waiting for him booed and screamed!

To ensure the president's safety, the mounted police had to disperse the crowd with batons, but as Hoover's car drove by, tens of thousands of people along the way waved their fists and shouted "Hang Hoover!" ”

Countless signs were held with the words, "Down with Hoover!" Hoover was the murderer of veterans! Hoover gave billions of dollars to bankers for nothing, and shot and killed veterans!"

One agent secretly told a reporter: "From Teddy. From the time of Roosevelt. I have traveled with successive presidents, and I have never seen anyone booing the president like this, going out into the streets in droves to make contemptuous gestures to the president. It's ugly. ”

During the mass demonstration, Secret Service Chief Sterling glanced at Hoover and saw that he was blank and almost speechless. His train passed through the worst areas of the crisis. The angry crowd threw eggs and tomatoes at the train!

But Hoover didn't give up! He told the cabinet members that the Americans "hated" the Republican authorities, so the only way to win was to "scare them and make them fear that Roosevelt would do something bad!" ”

Referring to his tariff policy in Des Moines, he said: "If the protective tariff were removed, hundreds of towns would be barren and millions of farms would be overgrown with weeds......

He told an audience in Indianapolis that Roosevelt was talking "nonsense, falsehood, empty talk, and falsehoods...... Words that ruin the reputation of others, stupid words, words that spew blood......"

He pledged in Cleveland that he would feed any "good" citizen.

In the city of São Paulo, he referred to veterans' evictions who petitioned for compensation, saying, "Thank goodness we have a good government in Washington that knows how to deal with the rioters." ”

But it seems that people don't buy his account!

In Des Moines, his speech drew ridicule from his audience, and he paraded around with a "Hoover car" with a sign that read, "No matter what Hoover says, we must get there, it's not a brag." ”

In Indianapolis, listeners booed him and threw eggs and tomatoes at him.

In Cleveland, the audience banged him down! Tell him to "fuck off with your lies!" Hoover! ”

The worst was in the city of São Paulo, where his description of the ex-servicemen made the audience angry! People were yelling to rush to the pulpit and pull Hoover down! The helpless agents could only escort Hoover and flee the scene in embarrassment.

Fortunately, Coolidge finally arrived at this time. Hoover and the Republicans hopefully built a podium for him at Madison Square Garden! Trying to salvage some prestige.

Republicans thought Coolidge was appealing and that the garden would be packed. But on the day of the presentation, more than two-thirds of the seats were empty! Angry ushers ran out into the streets, trying to persuade passers-by to go in and listen to the speech of the only surviving outgoing president, Coolidge.

When the speech finally began, the Republican loyalists in the room applauded him enthusiastically for two minutes! Coolidge took out his watch and hinted that such a drum would inevitably waste 340 yuan in broadcasting fees, so the applause stopped.

Someone shouted, "That's how Carl works!" Carl was an intimate name for Coolidge, but he didn't know that he had lost his former demeanor, and even the audience was not the kind of listener he was familiar with.

"The Republican Party believes that industry and commerce should be promoted," he said. Industry and commerce have profits, and the welfare of ordinary people has followed. He and the others applauded, but there was no response.

He continued, "When I was president—" and the crowd burst into laughter. He shook his head, bewildered. No one had ever laughed at him like this when he used to speak! In confusion and helplessness, he stammered to finish the manuscript, and as soon as he got home, he told his family that he had "dried the ashes of the lamp".

A month later, he said to an old friend who had come to visit him: "I feel like I can't keep up with this era anymore......"

Two months later, January 5, 1933. The 30th President of the United States: John Jr. Calvin. Coolidge, d. He was 61 years old.
