Chapter 526 The Democratic Republic of South Vietnam
Jing Yihua mentioned Wu Wenrong and Xu Naizhao respectively, which contains two meanings, first of all, he Ye Mingchen is not the first feudal official to betray the Qing Dynasty, there is Wu Wenrong as an example, others can't talk about him, the difference is only that Wu Wenrong voted for the Democratic Alliance, and he was the president of his own country.
The second is to point out that Xu Naizhao is such an iron-clad loyal minister, and the court will not reward him, and use Xu Naizhao's fate to remind Ye Mingchen whether it is worth his allegiance to the Qing Dynasty.
To tell the truth, Ye Mingchen's heart has been moved, the so-called success and defeat of the king, if the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam can continue the country, then he Ye Mingchen is the father of the country, although he is not the emperor, it is inevitable that there are some regrets, but as the founding president, that is also the status of Washington, the father of the United States, admired by all generations!
But what about the family in Beijing? Ye Mingchen didn't want to ask the foreigner to make a move, so he remained silent.
Jing Yihua said again: "Lord Ye is worried about the safety of his family in Beijing? I am afraid that in a few days, your family will be sent to Guangzhou, and if nothing happens, you should enter the Taiwan Strait at this time. ”
Ye Mingchen understood, this is kidnapping his family, I am afraid that as long as he says half a word, not only will he be killed, but his family will also die tragically, it can be seen that this president is a puppet, and the real power is still held by foreigners.
"Isn't that too much, guys?" Ye Mingchen's face showed a hint of anger.
"No, no, no, Lord Ye, you misunderstood!" Bao Ling smiled and waved his hand: "Time is pressing, we have to make this decision. But we can guarantee that your family will never be subjected to any inhumane treatment, and we can guarantee that. The future Democratic Republic of South Vietnam will be dominated by you Chinese, and Britain, the United States and France will only provide military or economic assistance when requested by your country. ”
Regardless of the credibility of the foreigner's words. But Ye Mingchen could only breathe a sigh of relief, in fact, he had no choice, and if he didn't agree, the clan would be wiped out. Bao Ling and the others came to visit rashly, how could they not prepare in advance if they did not cooperate? It can be said that he, the great president, is both appropriate and inappropriate.
"Hey~~" Ye Mingchen showed a wry smile. Shaking his head, he said, "Thank you for your love." For the sake of the people of my two countries, this official can only reluctantly make it difficult. ”
"Congratulations to Lord Ye, no, it's His Excellency the President!" Bao Ling, Pa Xiali, Jing Yihua and Wu Chongyao all bowed to Ye Mingchen, but the four exchanged smug smiles between them.
Although Bao Hen promised not to interfere in the internal affairs of the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam under normal circumstances, in the previous discussions, the government system was to adopt the cabinet system that was common in Europe, that is, the president was the head of state. As a symbol of the country, the real power is in the hands of the Prime Minister. The prime minister of the cabinet has been internally designated as Wu Chongyao.
Compared with Ye Mingchen, Wu Chongyao's Jardine House has been with foreigners for many years, and has a certain tacit understanding with each other, and the Wu family has invested a lot of money in the United States and the East India Company, and the close economic ties and actual comprador status make Wu Chongyao more trusted by foreigners.
After some greetings, Ye Mingchen asked: "On the ground in Guangdong, there are still Guangdong Governor Bai Gui and Guangzhou General Mukedenne, how should these two deal with it?" ”
"Eh~~" Wu Chongyao waved his hand: "The president doesn't have to worry, a few foreign adults have a perfect plan, and they have assembled nearly 3,000 marines in Hong Kong, and as soon as your family arrives in Guangzhou, they will immediately take action, cooperate with the president to remove the Guangzhou bannermen, including these two thieves, and show the world the determination to revive our Han nationality, and never go back!" ”
The banner of nationalism will not only be raised by Wang Feng, Hong Xiuquan, Wu Chongyao, Ye Mingchen can climb to the high position of the governor of Liangguang step by step, he is not a soft-hearted person at all, and the life and death of some banner people are not even fart in his eyes, he nodded at the moment, and asked: "Then is it difficult for our relationship with the Democratic Alliance to declare war on the Democratic Alliance?" ”
Pashali also waved his hand: "Declaring war is just the next policy, your country should conclude a peace agreement with the Democratic Alliance as soon as the founding of the country, and then establish diplomatic relations, with the support of our Britain, the United States and France, and can also contact Portugal, Spain and the Netherlands to exert pressure together, it is expected that Wang Feng will not be confused."
However, in order to prevent accidents, your country must also sign a military alliance treaty with the Nguyen Dynasty of Vietnam, France has a strong influence in Vietnam, the French side will come forward to deal with this matter, and then vigorously develop the military, integrate the resources and manpower of Liangguang and even Fujian, if the strength of the Democratic Alliance is not as good as your country in the future, then your country should not hesitate to declare war on the Democratic Alliance, and our European and American countries will provide support within their capabilities.
However, if the NLD forces remain strong, then your country should give up any luck and take the initiative to merge with the NLD forces to promote the cause of China's reunification. ”
'Merger? Ye Mingchen can understand declaring war on the Democratic Alliance, but he can't understand the key to giving up the country's independence and merging with the Democratic Alliance.
Wu Chongyao said with a mysterious smile: "The merger does not mean that we bow down to the Democratic Alliance Army, we can ask for the use of democratic elections, one person, one vote, to elect the ruler of the country, anyway, we are all Chinese, merging into one country is not unacceptable, if the president has enough votes, maybe one day he can sit in Nanjing to work ah, hahahaha~~"
In the end, Wu Chongyao couldn't help laughing wildly, he could fully imagine that when the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam proposed to settle the dispute with the Democratic Alliance Army by peaceful means, if the Democratic Alliance Army insisted on settling it by force, it would become the main culprit in provoking the civil war, which would run counter to the people's call for stability, and then lose the support of the people!
Moreover, the future Democratic Republic of South Vietnam will also carry out the cause of peaceful reunification under the banner of democracy and on the premise of democracy, and this will occupy the moral high ground in public opinion.
Wu Chongyao believes that his democracy is more thorough than that of the Democratic League, because the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam implements a system of universal suffrage of one person, one vote, and the people have universal suffrage, unlike the Democratic League Army, which came step by step, and the chief officials at all levels are still appointed by Wang Feng, and in addition, the Democratic League Army takes the road of constitutional monarchy, and there will still be emperors in China in the future, but his country is a cabinet system and a parliamentary system, and the separation of powers, which is a real democracy and is more advanced than the constitutional monarchy.
As if foreseeing Wang Feng's angry appearance, the other four also laughed in unison, especially Bao Ling, whose laughter contained a hint of insidiousness!
When he received Robertson's notice and was forced to relinquish control of Shanghai Customs, the anger and humiliation in his heart reached an unspeakable level, but Wang Feng's threat was there, and he would let it go no matter what, but he was very unwilling, he wanted Wang Feng to pay the price of greed!
The Democratic Republic of South Vietnam was a weapon to fight back against Wang Feng, he first communicated with France and the United States, and the three countries agreed to separate South China, and then Bao Ling personally went to Guangzhou, found Wu Chongyao, analyzed the current situation in China, pointed out that this was the best opportunity for the founding of the country, and promised that Wu Chongyao would be the prime minister of the government with real power.
Wu Chongyao is a big comprador and a big capitalist, although he can exploit and oppress the small and medium-sized merchants of the Thirteen Lines, but above his head, there is still the Qing Dynasty, and he still has to be oppressed by the Qing court, so after thinking about it, he felt that there was a great hope of success, agreed to the request of the foreigners, and after some arrangement, he found Ye Mingchen's house.
In addition, the establishment of the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam can also further weaken the Qing Dynasty, so that it can be better controlled!
The laughter in the study lasted for a long time, and when it gradually stopped, Pashali said: "Your Excellency, we also have to prevent the worst from happening, that is, once the news of your country's founding comes out, the Democratic Alliance will come to attack desperately, you know, when your country was first founded, its influence has not yet been exerted, and it is the most dangerous time, and Mr. Wang Feng is full of adventurous spirit and often does not play cards according to common sense, but if he comes to attack, this process will not be long, because he can't afford to spend a long-term war of attrition. Therefore, your country must have the ability to resist a short-term, high-intensity attack by the Democratic Alliance!
My opinion is that Mr. Vu will personally go to Phu Xuan (present-day Hue, Vietnam) early tomorrow morning as the special envoy of the President to negotiate a military alliance with Emperor Nguyen Thi Duc, and there are some other details that we will finalize overnight."
In Ye Mingchen's study, the five core figures of the founding of the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam talked with candles and nights, and one poison plan and one strategy after another quietly floated on the paper, and the next morning, Wu Chongyao, accompanied by several Frenchmen, secretly left Guangzhou by boat.
Five days later, that is, on the morning of October 1, Ye Mingchen suddenly raised the banner of anti-Qing Dynasty, led the governor Yamen to the green battalion, and together with more than 30,000 private armed men of the British, French, and American marines stationed in Hong Kong and the Thirteen Elements, with lightning speed, exterminated the governor of Guangdong, Bai Gui and his cronies, collected and surrendered more than 10,000 armed men under the governor's yamen, and broke through the city of Guangzhou in the afternoon, and punished more than 6,000 men, women, and children under the general of Guangzhou, Mukdenne, and the bannermen, women, and children.
On the day that Ye Mingchen took control of Guangzhou, he immediately issued two orders in the name of the president, the first was to announce that the founding ceremony of the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam would be held in a month, and the second was to order all the prefectures, prefectures, counties and green battalions in the border of the two provinces to come to Guangzhou within one month to swear allegiance, otherwise, they would be killed as remnants of the Qing Dynasty, and advised Wang Yide, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, and Lu Yansun, the governor of Fujian, to lead the land to join the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam, and called on Jiang Feiyuan, the governor of Guizhou, to revolt. He led his subordinates and the people of Yunnan and Guizhou to punish Heng Chun, the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou, and Shu Xing'a, the governor of Yunnan, and the bannermen of the department to join the Democratic Republic of South Vietnam!
The Democratic Republic of South Vietnam was born, and the news spread to the west and north at the speed of fear, and the sensational effect was no worse than the destruction of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom by the Democratic Alliance Army, and it spread to Nanchang in just eight days!
