Chapter 145: The World (2)

Gu Yingyang, former director of the Equipment Department and Training Division of the General Staff and current director of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff, did not have a chance for him to play in this war, but this will not affect his image as a handsome and empathetic good attendant in Liu Yun's eyes.

Xiao Ruhai, former commander of the South China Military Region and current director of the Equipment Division of the General Staff Department, did not perform in battle during the war, and he had been a feudal official outside the country for a long time, so in Liu Yun's eyes, his image was inevitably a little blurred.

There is no doubt that through these eleven old generals and more than a dozen new generals outside the group, Liu Yun, as the leader of the group, firmly holds the control of the Imperial Army.

On Liu Yun's right-hand side, there are ten political bigwigs lined up, saying that they are bigwigs, and the average age is only in their forties, but all of them have had the experience of entering the cabinet.

Wen Yi naturally sat next to Liu Yun, it can be said that he is a well-deserved leader in the group's civil and official system: he served as a lecturer in the palace Xinxue for three years, served as vice minister of the prime minister for four years, served as prime minister for eight years, served as president of the Chinese People's Party for ten years, concurrently served as the president of Beijing Normal Imperial University and the dean of the Imperial University of Political Science and Law for six years, and concurrently served as the president of Beijing Normal University of Political Science and Law for five years. However, he was rapidly aging, fifty-two years old, eighty-two years old, his eyes cloudy and dull, and he looked lifeless, and it was doubtful that he could sit there and return to the light. At present, he has neither a public office nor a party position, and only serves as the chief adviser to the cabinet without a salary, but this has not had much impact on the effectiveness of his control of the vast network of power in his hands; the backbone of the Chinese People's Party in Beijing still comes to him in batches to ask for instructions in the morning and report to him in the evening, and leaders from all walks of life continue to maintain close contacts with him, and his private banquets are full of industrial tycoons, political stars, scientific and technological giants, cultural celebrities, and foreign ministers. For Liu Yun, he is an absolutely special existence, Yu Private, the two have always been close friends from wearing open crotch pants to getting married and having children, Yu Gong, only he can talk to Liu Yun at the same level within the group, but he has never tried to obtain the status of the so-called deputy leader, and this group has never set up the kind of position that can replace Liu Yun at any time.

Liu Yun doesn't need a deputy leader, he only needs Wen Yi, he can use everyone as a tool - except Wen Yi...... and a thousand birches.

Immediately to the left of Wen Yi is his loyal follower, former Prime Minister Zhang Zhigao, no more than 38 years old, decent image, energetic, quick and a little tactful, successively served as Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister to the United Kingdom, Minister to the United States, Dean of the Foreign Affairs College of Jingshi Imperial University, President of Jingshi Tongwen University, Vice Minister of the Interior, Dean of the School of Political Science and Law of Jingshi Imperial University, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, and other public offices, Wen Yi was elected president of the People's Party after recuperating from illness at the end of last year. At the beginning of this year, he succeeded Liu Yun as prime minister, and after the signing of the New York Peace Treaty, he was forced to resign due to the "9•Wuguan Street smashing incident"; at present, in addition to continuing to serve as president of the Chinese People's Party, he also serves as chairman of several committees of the House of Representatives on foreign affairs, constitutional law, justice, social security, and local self-government.

In the past, the current Minister of Culture and Education, Zhang Zhigao's wife Luo Sulan, is also a student brought out by Wen Yi himself, wearing a dark dress, light makeup and plain face, the beautiful appearance of the former school flower has not been discounted too much at the age of thirty-seven, which is enough to make up for the richer and sublimated intellectual temperament, in the past 14 years, he has successively served as the vice minister of culture and education, the professor of the palace women's school, the member and chairman of the Cabinet Education Reform and Development Committee, the president of the Beijing Normal College, the vice minister of health, the president of Feifeng Women's University and other public offices. In 1901, he served as Minister of Culture and Education during the second Bunyi Cabinet. As the only woman in the group, the burden on her shoulders was no lighter than that of others, and it is impressive that she solemnly mentioned to her comrades on more than one occasion that she was first the mother of three children, then someone's wife, and at the last the tiring ministers, commissars, and indifferent viscounts, but there were quite a few comrades who were very unimpressed by the "after" she mentioned—the natural reaction of the failed suitor.

In the past, Mo Ning, the former Minister of the Interior, the current president of Beijing Normal University of Political Science and Law and the chairman of the House of Representatives House of Representatives, has a white face, shiny hair, a suit ironed out of neat folds, and a pair of black-framed glasses that seem to be majestic.

The fifth on the left, former Minister of Agriculture and Forestry Tian Zhenghong, is currently the chairman of the Industrial and Commercial Committee and the Agriculture and Forestry Committee of the House of Representatives, the president of Jingshi Agriculture and Forestry University and the dean of the Business School of Jingshi Imperial University. With a vivid horse face and dark skin, if it weren't for the well-made suit on his body, it is difficult to say whether he would have been coaxed away by the new guards at the Prime Minister's Mansion as a peasant who had run the wrong door. His biggest hobby is to regularly visit one of his experimental fields and several small greenhouses at the Agriculture and Forestry University to observe the growth of various new varieties of crops.

The towering nose bridge with delicate gold-rimmed glasses, the resolute and bright eyes, the corners of the mouth slightly frowned sexily, the long oily hair neatly combed back, well-dressed, personable, the prey of women, the enemy of men - fortunately, this guy married a Wanling Gege early and became the "forehead" of the Aixin Jueluo Dynasty, presumably that Gege is not a perfect woman who is open-minded and understanding, anyway, this guy has never had a chance to create scandals after getting married. This "forehead" is Ma Feng, the former minister of science and technology next to Han Lang, who is currently the chairman of the Science and Technology Committee and the Culture and Education Committee of the House of Representatives, the president of Beijing Normal University of Science and Technology and the dean of Beijing Normal College. There is a Gege as a wife, and it is indispensable to put gold on the face of the royal family in public, but once he returns to the circle of the group, he will do whatever he wants, even if it involves his father-in-law's family, he will never return to protect it, even if he is said to be "Master Ma is too ruthless", he just simply perfunctory with "Wanling will understand me". In terms of political philosophy, although they also follow Wenyi, they sometimes put forward eye-popping ideas – for example, that intermarriage between the royal families of the East Asian Union and the royal families of Europe should be promoted......

Bald, fat-faced, huge-bellied, gold-edged thick round glasses, the image of Niu Jin, the former Minister of Industry and Commerce and the current Minister of Communications, can be clearly outlined with only curves, and the background of a doctor of industrial management and an industrial management engineer from Tsinghua University in another time and space is enough to make him comfortable in his own work, and now at the age of 48, he has never expressed any unique opinions in a field other than his major, and it seems that he has already poured all his political enthusiasm into the complicated work he is currently engaged in.

Next to Niu Jin's left is a spokesperson for the aesthetics of the telephone pole - Chancellor of the Exchequer Han Lang, his skinny figure in Niu Jin's big belly that can be driven into an aircraft carrier is enough to leave a skeletal impression, and his qualifications as Chancellor of the Exchequer for more than ten years have brought him the title of "God of Wealth", but in the eyes of some people, he is just a thin but extremely stubborn "treasury watchdog". If you have to say that he has any political ideas, it is enough to sum it up in the five words "saving money to run an industry".

Then there was a huffy bird's nest...... Beneath the nest is an inhuman, thin, pale melon seed face, a pair of square, black-rimmed glasses that almost obscure half of the face on the bridge of the short nose, and the cuffs of the suit and shirt are stained with ink, which is obviously a scruffy appearance that is not welcomed by the social world, but the person himself never cares about it. He is Jiang Wentao, former Minister of Communications, and now concurrently serves as the president of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, director of the Ordnance Industry Department of the Ministry of National Defense, chairman of the Science and Technology Development Committee of the Cabinet, and several other positions related to science and technology and military industry. Although he is called a madman, he has accumulated some political ability, but it is far from the point of forming an independent political opinion.

The last one is the current Minister of Science and Technology He Xin, with a pair of unpleasant mouse eyes, sharp-beaked monkey gills, very much the taste of the villain in the old revolutionary movies, but this has nothing to do with his ability in the professional field, as Jiang Wentao's alumni and designer of the specialized weapons design bureau, he and Jiang Wentao jointly presided over the overall weapons development work of the empire, and laid the foundation of the education and research and development system in the field of science and technology in the empire together with Ma Feng and Jiang Wentao. Unlike Jiang Wentao's workaholic, he is happy to enjoy life, and his high-end restaurants and brothels in Jingshi often receive orders from him - although his number of concubines and professional chefs are in the double digits, he never misses any vacation to visit the sights, according to him, "the pleasure of work is directly proportional to the pleasure of enjoyment", and it is puzzling that he does not inflate like a balloon because of indulgent pleasures, his chin is still pointed, his neck is thin, and his belly is still airport-shaped…… Unlike the previous ones, in terms of political opinions, he is neither a follower of Wen Yi nor a follower of the crowd, his principle is to unconditionally support the supreme leader Liu Yun, in fact, he has always considered himself a member of the army, a member of the "old lineage", from a formal point of view, his status as a reserve lieutenant general seems to be enough to prove this - but this one-sided understanding has never been recognized by those veteran generals who have been in a hundred battles.

Liu Yun breathed a sigh of relief to the fog in his heart.

These are the people who have it, this empire of more than 400 million people, it is through them that it is in my hands.

But this is not enough, my thousand-year-old empire, even if the foundation of all the lives of everyone present is not enough.

But we can't give up, before our lives are wiped out in the dust of this different time and space, at least let us know that the dream of the Tao is not far from us, let us see, hear, touch, smell, and let us create a glorious history for future generations!
