Yang Yuwei, Zhao Ke and Luo Yi's car directly entered the compound of the General Headquarters, and when the three of them got out of the car, Luo Yi just gave up, and Yang Yuwei and Zhao Ke immediately felt that the atmosphere in the courtyard today was very different from the past.

The confidence and faint joy that the officers in the headquarters usually had were all gone, and everyone's faces were solemn.

The two women glanced at each other, and both saw a hint of doubt in each other's eyes: "Is something wrong?" ”

Yang Yuwei and Zhao Ke quickened their pace, and Luo Yi followed behind them, but unfortunately, when they arrived at the door, Luo Yi stopped them again.

Zhao Ke turned around and explained: "Luo Yi, you just wait in the courtyard, we went up to have a very important meeting with Commander-in-Chief Xie." ”

Luo Yi knew what was important and nodded in agreement.

Yang Yuwei and Zhao Ke went directly to the conference room, and there were more than a dozen people sitting in the conference room, all of whom were the most important people in the military and government.

Not long after the two came in, Xie Niancheng and Haruko entered the house.

Xie Niancheng said: "Everyone is here, very good, let's invite Haruko to announce an important news to you." ”

Haruko stood up and greeted everyone before speaking:

"I received news from Germany this morning that the German Empire and its allies have declared war on the alliance of Britain, France, Russia, Italy and other countries."

When he learned the news for the first time, Xie Niancheng's first thought was not about national events or the rise and fall of the nation, but about Ling Boli, Kagura and Sister Pao, who were close to him. During these times, there was a lot of contact with the German side, but due to confidentiality considerations. Xie Niancheng's telegram correspondence with several of them did not talk about the war.

But Xie Niancheng knew that with the character of Ling Boli's sisters, when the war broke out. It is necessary to go to the battlefield at the first time.

Xie Niancheng can be regarded as a person who has been on the battlefield several times, so he naturally knows how dangerous it is to be a pilot and tank soldier on the front line.

For a moment, Xie Niancheng almost wanted to go to Europe himself and fight side by side with them.

But reason quickly told Xie Niancheng, not to mention that there were tens of thousands of miles between the Chinese Federation and the German Empire, even if they were next to each other. Sichuan will go all out to expand its army to 500,000 people and throw it into the European battlefield, that is, the strength to participate in a campaign.

The scale of the European theater. It's really not something that can be compared with the Chinese Federation. Even if all the revolutionary army and warlord troops of the Chinese Federation are added up to less than two million people, plus the gap in combat effectiveness, the army of the entire Chinese Federation is not enough to fight a powerful country in Europe.

The only thing Xie Niancheng can do. It's secretly praying for a few girls.

Haruko's words are short though. But Yang Yuwei, Zhao Ke, and Xu Wenchang, who only knew the news, were still shocked.

The European side has been talking about going to war for several years, and it has only been windy and not rainy, and now it is finally a big fight.

The Sichuan government and the revolutionary army under the leadership of Xie Niancheng are very honest, so everyone's first reaction is to use their brains to think about whether there is a way to help Germany.

The speed of construction in Sichuan is astonishing, and this is absolutely inseparable from the help of German and American experts. Compared with American experts and workers who come for monetary gain. There is a great deal of friendship between the German experts, the workers and the equipment provided by Germany.

These experts and workers first came to Sichuan, perhaps at the behest of the German government, or perhaps because they valued the treatment promised by the Chinese Federation. But after they came. Everyone sees every day's dedication, and their ability and attitude have also won the respect of everyone in Sichuan from top to bottom.

Without their painstaking efforts, Sichuan would never have been able to build so quickly.

Now that Sichuan's industrial system has been fully constructed, all that awaits is the start of the steel mills. As long as the steel plant can be opened, the entire industrial system of Sichuan will be officially operational. And once the industrialization system is working, it will turn faster and faster, and no one can stop it.

Xie Niancheng interrupted everyone's thinking out loud:

"Well, now that the war in Europe has broken out, on the domestic side, Chairman Jiang and various units of the revolutionary army have begun the Second Northern Expedition, and it can be said that both the international and domestic countries have become a pot of porridge. Naturally, we in Sichuan should also take active action...... Let's talk about the situation in our hands first, and then talk about what we should do next in Sichuan? ”

Sichuan's high-level military and political leaders have regular meetings every month, and after holding meetings for a long time, the so-called "unspoken rule" has naturally been formed, that is, there is already a routine for which part speaks first.

The first person to speak today is still the head of the government, Xie Niancheng's father, Xie Xinren.

Xie Xinren was originally just a small landowner, but after having this son, he can be said to have become the richest man in Sichuan in just a few years, and then became the chairman of the provincial government of Sichuan.

Now Xie Xinren doesn't want to pursue anything for himself anymore, in terms of publicity, he may just want to be a "emperor" now, and in terms of selfishness, he just wants to be a grandfather.

But everyone didn't dare to snub him, so he was the first to speak at such a high-level meeting.

Xie Xinren said: "On the government side now, all the institutions are operating normally, but if you want to move the work forward faster, it would be better with some money." ”

Xie Xinren's witty speech eased the tense air in the room a lot.

Xie Xinren has a high position, but his ability is limited after all, so he is in charge of personnel work the most. He did a good job of acting as a bridge between the old-school gentry and military officers and the Xie Niancheng group and the American and German experts in the past, and it can be said that he did an excellent job in the personnel work of the whole Sichuan.

In fact, he only knows the specific work of various government departments, but the heads of all departments must report to him, so from the bright side, the provincial chairman is still very comfortable.

After Xie Xinren finished speaking, it was Luo Guoliang.

"Ladies and gentlemen, after the New Year, the Sichuan Council and the county councils have been re-elected, and it can be said that the power of our new government has finally been stabilized. At present, the most common issue that parliamentarians have responded to is that they hope that the Sichuan government can start developing externally as much as possible, and as long as it is developing externally, our parliament will guarantee its support. ”

In the new structure, the parliament has played a dual role in overseeing and cooperating with the government.

When Luo Guoliang said that the legislators hope that the government will "develop" abroad, they actually hope that the Sichuan government, which is in fact an independent regime, will expand its territory.

In the current parliament, the parliamentarians are basically made up of capitalists, soldiers and officials, and these people are the ones who want war the most.

The nascent capitalists in Sichuan, who were initially industrialized and commercialized, were born with an understanding of the truth that "when a cannon goes off, there are ten thousand taels of gold", and what business can make more money than war?

Not to mention the military, the military who doesn't want to fight, can it still be called a soldier?

Most of the officials are people who save the Congress, and in the internal meetings of the Salvation Congress, Xie Niancheng has long been their leader, and now they all want to follow the leader to occupy more land and become bigger officials.

After the government and parliament have spoken, the next step is the judicial inspection department.

The leaders of these two departments were two acquaintances who had fled from the Socialist Party: Luo Wenxuan and Yan Xuejun.

Luo Wenxuan, who served as the president of the court, can be said to have finally found the most suitable position for himself, he is an idealist, and an idealist to serve as the president of the court is a lucky thing for himself and the whole of Sichuan.

After he became president of the court, he took advantage of his connections with the Socialist Party while he was studying in the United States to recruit a group of legal experts to come to Sichuan. Therefore, Sichuan has changed dramatically in the past two years, but the legislative work has also miraculously kept up.

At the beginning of the regime, there were still many people who dared to break the law, Luo Wenxuan used his righteousness to resolutely crack down on all those who broke the law, and his work also received resolute support from all sides, and he himself was also given the title of "Luo Qingtian" among the people of Sichuan.

"The work of our courts is progressing very smoothly, and now the construction of the courts in the counties has been completed, and all the judges in all places have been put in place. Whatever the government does next, our courts can guarantee adequate legal safeguards. ”

Compared with the idealist Luo Wenxuan, who has done a good job in the work of the courts, the realists have also done a good job in the procuratorate. Before Yan Xuejun presided over the establishment of the procuratorate, Sichuan's anti-corruption work was actually very chaotic, and there was no fixed organization to investigate, so after Yan Xuejun arrived in Sichuan, Xie Niancheng immediately gave him the task of establishing the procuratorate.

The duty of the Public Prosecutor's Office is to publicly supervise all public officials.

This public official covers a wide range of government officials, including government officials at all levels, as well as financially supported hospitals and schools, as well as all managers at all levels of state-owned enterprises.

Functionally speaking, it is very similar to the complex of several departments such as the Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Procuratorate in the time and space where Xie Niancheng was originally located.

Of course, Yan Xuejun alone can't support such a large team, and the current personnel of the procuratorate were transferred from the police department, the secret service and the confidential bureau at the beginning.

What amazed everyone was that Yan Xuejun recruited a large number of people who had grievances with the revolutionary army to work in the procuratorate. For example, some people whose family members were suppressed because they engaged in counterrevolutionary activities, some people whose property was confiscated by the revolutionary army because they committed crimes, and even Liu Wuguang's son, Yan Xuejun, was called to the procuratorate.

Yan Xuejun has also achieved great results in doing so, because these people, who were originally "inferior people" in Sichuan society, naturally used their supervisory power to the extreme after they got the power of supervision, as if they could bring down a few corrupt officials in the Sichuan government and catch the moths in a few state-owned enterprises, and they would be able to vent their anger fiercely.

"Our procuratorate is confident that it will cooperate with the government, the parliament, and the courts."

Although Yan Xuejun's subordinates have found out some people, he himself is exquisite, so he has a good relationship with the heads of all departments. (To be continued......)
