Chapter 419: Ventilation

In addition to banditry and big smoke, there is another thing that Xiao Zhenlei thinks has to be solved now, that is, the problem of associations and gangs, if the society and gangs want to solve it after a few years, it will be very difficult, because after many years, the government will definitely be more democratic, the legal system will gradually improve, all sectors of society will have a deeper understanding of human rights, and they will have more respect for human rights, and the power of the head of state will gradually weaken, and it will be even more difficult to completely solve the problem of gangs and associations. For example, in Hong Kong in later generations, the Hong Kong authorities did not fail to think about solving the problem of associations, but the resistance to solving it was unimaginable. ○

Xiao Zhenlei did not want to wait until it could not be solved in the future to solve the problem of gangs and associations, and took advantage of the fact that the current president has enough power and relatively concentrated power to completely solve some problems that hinder social development and progress, such as the gang problem, such as the Kuomintang problem.

In particular, some of the KMT's methods have touched the bottom line in Xiao Zhenlei's heart, and he has always advocated that political affairs should be resolved by political means, and whoever loses will step down. As long as we uphold this purpose and within the rules of the game that have been formulated, no matter how much the upper strata fight, it will not affect the people at the bottom and shake the foundation of the country, and the country can still develop normally and still grow. However, some of the KMT's tactics clearly violated the rules of the game, instigating, plotting, and directing bandit forces large and small throughout the country to confront the government and endanger the safety of the people's lives and property, which Xiao Zhenlei could not tolerate.

Second, many officials in the Kuomintang colluded with gangs and associations to act as a protective umbrella for gangs and associations to obtain benefits and escort the smuggling of large tobacco.

Again. The vast majority of high-ranking government officials, army generals, and military officers who smoke big cigarettes are members of the Kuomintang Party, and if smoking is to be banned. These people will definitely oppose it, and they will even use it as an excuse to attack Xiao Zhenlei. After all, smoking a few big puffs of cigarettes is not a big deal in this day and age.

Xiao Zhenlei actually weighed it for a long time before he made up his mind to solve the problems of banditry, big tobacco, gangs and associations, and the Kuomintang together, these problems seem to be different problems, but in fact they are all closely related, such as the Kuomintang inciting bandits to confront the government, endangering the safety of people's lives and property, and also acting as a protective umbrella for gangs and associations to obtain benefits, and the associations and gangs are involved in smuggling big tobacco, providing channels for smuggling big tobacco, and strictly threatening social security.

In fact, the most difficult KMT problem is easy to solve in Xiao Zhenlei's view, and it is all on the surface, who is the KMT and who is not the KMT. The Bureau of Internal Affairs and Investigation knows very well that when the time comes, it will only need to arrest people according to the list of KMT people with bad deeds.

On the contrary, the problem of gangs and associations is difficult to solve, because now there are only two associations and gangs, and other associations are attached to these two gangs. These two gangs are Hongmen and Qinggang! Among them, Hongmen is divided into heaven and earth and elder brothers, heaven and earth will be formed in the Qianlong period, to the Jiadao period, the organization system of heaven and earth will begin to formalize, generally with the eldest brother, the second brother, three for the head of the association, respectively called "red stick", "paper fan". "Straw sandals", so the Heaven and Earth Society only has the leader to call the elder brother, and there are only three elder brothers, and the internal mechanism is relatively simple. The ritual of worship is generally formed through the guò collective. The venue set up the Zhongyi Hall, dedicated to the legendary Hongmen Five Ancestors tablet, indicating the purpose of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty. Initiates need to go through a set of elaborate rituals and make a blood alliance. Form a virtual kinship.

The Elder Brotherhood absorbed some of the characteristics of the Heaven and Earth Society and the White Lotus Sect, and the organization of the Elder Church was much more complex than the Heaven and Earth Society. Each group has the name of mountain, hall, incense, and water, "the leader of each mountain is called the main dragon, and there is a deputy dragon head under the main dragon, and under the deputy dragon head there are sitting halls, accompanying halls, torture halls, science halls, executive halls, and five halls, and there are also league and incense chief positions (the above is called the inner eight halls, which is the leader of the elder brothers' association). In addition, ordinary members are called big nine, small nine, big nine, small nine, big man, big man, small man, etc., and leaders and members at all levels have strict rank regulations.

As for the Green Gang, it is the original Caoyun Sailor Gang, the initial industry characteristics are distinct, with the decline of Caoyun, the Green Gang began to break the professional restrictions, march to the docks and big cities, and continue to recruit troops and horses, expanding the organizational power. The Qing Gang is divided into three gangs, all of which are formed by apprentices and have a low level of organization. Qinggang investment needs to rely on its own prestige and skills to control the crowd. Therefore, the people in the rivers and lakes who have joined the Green Gang can be like the Hong Gang again, but if they join the Hong Gang, they can no longer be like the Green Gang.

The organization of the Hong Gang is much stricter than that of the Green Gang, and the contact information is also extremely complex, with very cumbersome cuts and gestures, and if you want to have a deeper understanding of this gang, you must join it to get a glimpse of the whole picture.

This is also the reason why Xiao Zhenlei thinks that it is much easier to deal with the gang than it is to deal with the KMT, because the KMT people do not have a strong sense of self-protection, the organizational form is quite loose, and it is open to the whole society, and it is easy to investigate the people in the KMT, but it is not so easy to investigate the people in the Hong Gang.

Xiao Zhenlei believed that in order to solve the problems of banditry, big smoke, and gangs, it was necessary to first solve the problem of the Kuomintang that acted as a protective umbrella for them, and it would be much simpler to deal with the problems of bandits and gangs by just removing the protective umbrella.

Xiao Zhenlei also knows that it is not an easy thing to solve the Kuomintang, if he goes too far, others will say that he is engaged in dictatorship, and solving the Kuomintang's Party does not mean that he wants to wipe out the Kuomintang, this is not good, he just wants to find out the black sheep in the Kuomintang, and give the rest of the Kuomintang a stern warning, if the Kuomintang is wiped out, then other political forces will inevitably oppose it, because these people know the truth that the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, and the lips and teeth are cold, as long as he dares to kill the Kuomintang, Then the other political forces will definitely join forces to oppose him, although with the current forces of the Predator Party, he is not afraid of these political forces opposing them at all, but he does not want to and cannot wipe out all the political forces, which will make the Predator Party have no supervision, his idea is to use the Predator Party to govern in the dynasty and other political forces to supervise the opposition.

After thinking about it, Xiao Zhenlei decided to decide to talk to Sun Wen, chairman of the Kuomintang first, to do the first salute and then the soldiers, and strive to persuade Sun Wen to support him, if Sun Wen can support it, then the next thing is much easier, but if Sun Wen does not support it, then the affairs of the Kuomintang must also be handled, he can't give up because Sun Wen does not support it, this is not in line with the appearance of a mature politician, the reason why he wants to communicate with Sun Wen first, on the one hand, is to obtain his support, on the other hand, it is also to show a kind of respect, If you do everything, people have pimples in their hearts, is it useful to talk about it again? It's obvious.

On this day, Xiao Zhenlei invited Sun Wen to the presidential palace as a guest, the two talked about some daily topics, talked about some international and domestic things, chatted for a morning, both of them chatted very happily, and at noon Xiao Zhenlei held a banquet in the presidential palace to invite Sun Wen.

During the banquet, Sun Wen asked: "I'm afraid that the president invited me over today is not as simple as just inviting me as a guest, right?" Is there something else going on? ”

Xiao Zhenlei sighed when he heard this: "I didn't want to say anything when I saw Mr. so happy today, but I still let Mr. see it, indeed, there is something else to ask Mr. to come over today!" ”

Sun Wen put down his chopsticks and raised his hand and said, "If the president has something, just say it!" ”

"Okay, then I'll be blunt!" Xiao Zhenlei said and stretched out his hand to Xiao Gao, who was standing next to him, and Xiao Gao immediately handed him a bag of Wen Jiàn.

Xiao Zhenlei took the bag and said to Sun Wen: "Sir, I don't know if you know that the country is a little unpeaceful during this time?" ”

"Not peaceful? Why? Sun Wen wondered.

According to the investigation, it is found that on the one hand, there are people who are planting big tobacco, and on the other hand, there are people who are providing protection for those who sell big cigarettes, and behind these things are the shadows of your party members, this is a detailed investigation report, which involves many members of your party, and several of them are the right hand men of Mr.!" Xiao Zhenlei said and handed over the bag in his hand.

Sun Wen's face changed drastically after listening to Xiao Zhenlei's words, but he still took Wen Jiàn's bag and opened it and pulled out the investigation report inside, he looked at it for half an hour, and the more he looked at it, the darker his face became.

After reading it, he pressed his eyes, his heart was quite uneasy, he knew what Xiao Zhenlei meant by showing him this investigation report, things had come to this point, Xiao Zhenlei was ostensibly here to ask for his opinion and show respect to him, but in fact? I hope that he will cooperate, so that it will be good for everyone, and to ventilate with him first is also to give him a chance to rectify the Kuomintang, he can calmly make some arrangements, so as not to be caught off guard at that time, but he also knows that since Xiao Zhenlei showed him this article, he is absolutely ready, even if he wants to inform those people on the article, those people will not be able to run away if they are afraid.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and said: "President, do what you want, don't care about my feelings, these people go against our original revolutionary purpose, not only do not contribute to the construction of the country, but also drag their feet, some people are really heinous, not killing is not enough to anger the people, not killing is not enough to reflect the majesty and sanctity of the law!" ”

Xiao Zhenlei shook his head and smiled: "Sir, I'm not the emperor, those people should be killed or not, how many years will be sentenced, there are laws and regulations!" I know that Mr. must be uncomfortable, but in fact, Mr. can also take this opportunity to rectify the Kuomintang, and the Kuomintang must also be rectified, but ".

"How?"

"It's just that after this incident, I'm afraid that members of your party will no longer be able to enter the government and military, this is not my intention, I have discussed with other factions before, and this is the result of our consultation!" (To be continued......)
