Chapter 239: Northern Expedition
The House of Representatives and the Senate were established.
The Chamber of Deputies is composed of provincial deputies, the number of deputies is determined by 50 per cent of the economic power and 50 per cent of the population, and the sub-provincial municipal councils are also constituted according to this principle, but each province has at least two seats.
The Senate, on the other hand, is attended by the nobles who have been knighted, and knights are conferred every ten years, with a maximum of 64 people awarded at a time. The role of the Senate is similar to that of the CPPCC, and it is mainly used to put forward opinions for reference.
The House of Representatives can elect the prime minister of the country, and the prime minister shall be elected for a term of four years, and cannot serve more than two terms at most, but he can serve for a third term after applying for himself and agreeing by King Yong.
The first prime minister of Yongguo, Wang Yong, decided to take the post himself and carry out internal affairs. He even prefers domestic affairs to war.
At the same time, he held the position of head of state, prime minister, chairman of the People's Party Committee, and commander of the army, and firmly grasped the political power, party power, military power, and financial power in his own hands.
It wasn't until he actually made the policy that he felt his desire for power.
The construction of systems must be constantly run in in practice in order to truly emerge a system suitable for the times and the country.
In Jiangnan Province, Zhejiang Province, and Guangdong Province, which have relatively abundant financial resources, a five-year compulsory education system for men is implemented, and girls who want to go to school can also pay for it themselves, and middle schools are two and a half years each.
Compulsory education is expected to become universal within 20 years.
Yongguo University and other universities were established, focusing on science and engineering technical universities.
Call on the whole country to learn from the West.
At the same time, a small number of overly complex Chinese characters were simplified on the original basis, most of which appeared in the Song Dynasty, and this time only a small part was carried out.
For example, Chinese characters such as 風 have not been simplified.
After all, the orthography has been passed down for more than 2,000 years, and large-scale changes are not a good thing for cultural inheritance.
At the same time, it organized the construction of railways such as the Sichuan-Pu Railway and the Nan'an Railway.
In terms of industry and commerce, state ownership is achieved in heavy industry, after all, the private sector has no technology and no ability to invest in this, and in light industry, private enterprises are encouraged.
The Central Bank was reorganized and responsible for the issuance of currency. Established commercial banks such as Haoyong Bank, Bank of China, Agricultural Bank of China, etc.
In terms of customs, the government has implemented a protective policy of high tariffs, and in general, the state capitalist policy of the Japanese and German periods has been adopted in the development of industry and commerce, and the late-developing countries must carry out trade protection policies if they want to catch up with the first-mover countries.
And on the size of Yongguo, it is only a matter of time before national capitalism develops.
At the same time, peasants from areas with prominent human-land contradictions in several southern provinces were transferred to Bagan, Jiaozhi, Annam, and Nanye provinces.
In the three provinces of Bagan, Annam, and Jiaozhi, Wang Yong and Zhu Fei were all killed very cleanly.
Nanye Province is also very clean, after killing for a while, many people have gone to India, but also a clean, but because it is on the front line of the border with the United Kingdom, and there are so many people in India, afraid of chaos, Wang Yong ordered Zhang Zhen to guard Nanye Province for generations after Zhang Zhen was crowned.
Wang Yong's titles after preparation are divided into two kinds, one is an honorary title that can enter the Senate to discuss politics, and the other is a real power and has the right to control the place. If there is no outstanding contribution, each generation will be downgraded by one level.
At present, Zhang Zhen is the only one who has this award.
On the day of the founding of the People's Republic of China, the United States announced the establishment of diplomatic relations with Yongguo.
Although U.S. President Taft is also worried that the rise of Yongguo will affect U.S. interests in the Philippines, the United States now attaches importance to the principle of open door, and the demand for overseas territories is not urgent, and opening the market of Yongguo is the most important.
So the two countries soon signed a treaty to grant each other the most favored nation status in trade, recognized Yongguo as the sole legitimate regime representing China, and set up embassies for each other, and Wang Yong placed all the embassies in Shanghai. At the same time, Yongguo recognized the existence of the United States in the Philippines and demanded that the United States protect the legitimate rights and interests of the local Chinese.
Wang Yong is ready to gradually cut off the material assistance of other worlds, and the Yongguo of this world has gradually had the foundation for completely independent development.
On the second day of its establishment, France also established diplomatic relations with Yongguo, and the two sides signed the "Nandu Peace Treaty" in Nandu, agreeing to end the war between the two countries, and France would compensate Yongguo with 6 million francs, recognize Yongguo's ownership of Jiaozhi and Annam, and release the French prisoners at the same time. At the same time, the two countries have also signed a trade most-favored-nation treaty.
On the same day, Wang Yong issued an order to liberate the whole country and defeat the reactionary warlords and foreign invading forces.
Jiang Baili of the Second Army was responsible for the liberation of Shandong, and directly under the two provinces, and at the same time waited for an opportunity to enter the Shengjing area.
Zhang Zhen of the Third Army set out from the central part and was responsible for the liberation of Henan, Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia, and Uriya Sutai, and cooperated in the liberation of the Zhili region.
Zhu Fei of the Fourth Army marched from the west and was responsible for the liberation of Shaanxi, Gansu, Qinghai, XJ and other provinces.
At this time, there was no unified regime in the north, only some warlords, and even many of them had expressed their willingness to join the Yongguo regime.
However, the issue of treatment is completely untouchable.
Now that the system has matured, Yongguo no longer needs the old bureaucrats to be demoted and hired, and if you are not shot, it will already be very face-saving to confiscate all your property.
Wang Yong sat in the central government to provide logistics and implement new policies.
In November, the British ambassador Juordian arrived belatedly, but his purpose was the same, he was eager to end the state of war between the two countries.
On the Indian side, the First Army did not need to use troops, as long as there was a steady supply of weapons to help the Indian princely states train their troops, then the whole of India would become more and more of a burden rather than a source of wealth for the British Empire.
The Yongguo stopped marching into the Indian hinterland, so it is clear that the Yongguo had no interest in India per se, but only wanted to turn it into a tool to disgust the British.
The two countries can still talk about this aspect.
Moreover, Britain has understood that Yongguo has now gained a firm foothold, and it will definitely not be able to defeat this emerging country 10,000 kilometers away from the British Empire's mainland, so British Prime Minister Herbert thinks that it is better to make peace with Yongguo, focus on developing the navy, and safeguard the interests of the British Empire in the world.
Although in order to protect India, Britain captured XZ in the north, Burma in the east, and Afghanistan in the west, but now in order to safeguard the existing interests, the British Empire can only pinch its nose and admit it.
If you continue to wear down with Yongguo, perhaps the final result will be that the whole of India is out of control, and Malaysia is also occupied, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Although Yongguo may still pose a threat to Britain if he frees his hands, that is a matter for the future after all, isn't it?
A month after a tug-of-war negotiation, the two countries signed the Treaty of Yongying Nandu, in which Britain compensated 20 million pounds sterling, recognized Yongguo's occupation of Burma, Northeast State and Chittagong, and released British prisoners to stop supporting the resistance in India.
In the negotiations with the two countries, the issues of Shanghai, the Wuchang concession, the XG issue, and the British property issue in Yongguo were all resolved, and the answer was - if you take it, I will admit it, and count me unlucky.
Seeing that the world hegemons have established diplomatic relations with Yongguo, countries have come one after another. The kingdom of Yong soon re-established its ties with the countries of the world.
