Chapter 200: Aftermath

The sun shone in from the window of the bedroom of the Presidential Palace, and Yuchen finally woke up from his deepest sleep. Now he no longer felt the incongruous feeling when he woke up when he was sleeping. He always thought he was still in his original apartment. When he pressed the ringtone to call people, a coworker in a white uniform had already brought the neatly ironed military uniforms. Although Yuchen didn't like to enjoy it very much, he was definitely not a supporter of absolutely equality in all walks of life. Especially now

In this era, his life and the staff who served in the Presidential Palace were already quite simple. To be precise, he would accept how others arranged his daily life. He had to think so many things every day, and he didn't have much thought to care about the things around him. After washing up, he came to the small living room outside the bedroom. The table had a steaming breakfast. The morning sun shone in, which made the room naturally have a fresh vitality.

The secretary and his adjutant had been waiting for him here. The secretary had sorted out the newspaper summary of the day and placed it next to his breakfast seat. The diligent deputy general Wang Dengke had prepared his schedule for today and was waiting for his final approval. If necessary, he would have breakfast with several important institutions in the Presidential Palace to inquire about the progress of their work. Most of the time, he would finish his meal in a hurry and go to welcome the busy day.

Wang Dengke saw him walking out with a refreshed look, stretching his waist comfortably. He smiled and said hello to him: "President, you slept so well yesterday. I'm afraid you've been in eight or nine hours...... I haven't seen you sleep so well for a long time. The big thing is coming. Now the whole city is full of joy. People below are also talking. Thanks to the president leading everyone to deal with such a complicated situation, if someone else had changed, he would have been busy. Who would have thought that fighting Qingdao would involve Japan and finally we would have been fighting them for peace? It's really not easy for you in the past few months."

Yuchen smiled faintly, sat on his seat, and commented on Wang Dengke's words in two words: "Flame." Wang Dengke didn't smile after hearing this, picked up his notepad and said to Yuchen: "At 10:30 in the morning, the president will come to the parliament to make an important speech to the members of the parliament, and have lunch with the representatives of the parliament at noon. In the afternoon, it is a formal commendation of the military's meritorious personnel..." He shook his head: "But don't think of resting... President, you see that the war is almost over. Should you let the President's wife come back? She has worked hard on the front line for so long, and it's not good to be tired and sick." Yuchen was about to say that according to the unified arrangement of the troops, he would naturally come back when he should come back, but the words turned into a sentence: "......You contact the hospital. If the business is not busy now, let me

She is back, so take a break." He looked at Wang Dengke and nodded and went out to arrange it. He leaned on the back of the chair to see the exquisite breakfast. In the past few months, he has experienced too many tests! But he finally survived. Others saw that he was in a state of great glory and commanded. But do people know that they were anxious, uneasy, nervous, anxious, and all kinds of negative emotions behind them? His responsibilities are too heavy and he can't make any mistakes. Sometimes he can't sleep all night, and when he meets people, he has to look full of energy and full of energy. Power is bitter, but power is also fascinating. He has been completely integrated into it. It is very good to see the feeling of history changing because of himself. The new Republic of China can finally face the whole world and usher in its full development.

The atmosphere of the parliament today is completely different from the anxious, uneasy, indignation and excitement that mixed together when the meeting was held in the past few months. What is filled with the members of the parliament is relaxation. Everyone was talking and laughing, and the voices were loud. There was a mixed buzzing sound in the main chamber of the parliament. The Senate and the House of Representatives jointly listened to Yuchen's summary of the previous stage of state affairs and explanations for future policies. Just look at the two speakers sitting on it with a smile, without any need to maintain it.

The meaning of order. Walking in from the gate first, Song Jiaoren and his group, and countless people rushed up to congratulate and greet him. Song Jiaoren's face also smiled and shook hands with everyone enthusiastically. He patted each other's shoulders. These senior officials and congressmen are now happy like children. The new Japanese government almost immediately mobilized ships to retreat Japanese soldiers like ghosts along the coast of Shandong, and told the Nanjing government through various channels that they were willing to negotiate to resolve the dispute between China and Japan.

Sincerity in the fight. Now the British Foreign Secretary and the US Deputy Secretary of State are in Nanjing, waiting to finally mediate the matter. Yuchen expressed his intention to make a state visit to the Allied countries and the United States, and they received enthusiastic responses. Isn’t this kind of prosperity of founding the country the most dreams of in the past few decades? The entire venue was filled with the simplest happiness. And the newspaper reporters who were allowed to enter the venue today,

The camera also kept taking pictures, and some interviewed the MPs on the spot. At the most lively moment, the crowd at the door was disturbed, and then they saw the crowd separated by Yuchen's adjutant and secretary. Yuchen walked in with a straight military uniform and smiled. Everyone stood up together without anyone commanding him and began to applaud Yuchen. The applause became louder and louder, and it never stopped until Yuchen walked onto the podium, and everyone's applause continued.

Yuchen stood quietly on the stage, humbly lowering his head to express his fear of being afraid of this honor. It was not until the Speaker solemnly knocked down the wooden hammer and announced: "Now welcome President Yuchen of the Republic of China and speak for us!" The tide of applause gradually subsided. Everyone looked at Yuchen on the stage, waiting for his speech. Although Yuchen's purpose was to report the state affairs of the previous stage to the parliament and report on the direction of the future national policy, for the parliament, they did not have the feeling of accepting Yuchen's report, reviewing his work situation, and implementing the sacred supervision power of parliamentarians. For them, on the stage, the leader who led the country to victory and prosperity is a hero who led the rise of the nation. Yuchen's experience over the past few months has also conquered the members of the parliament. His reputation has reached a level that he could not imagine.

"Dear Speaker, Dear Speaker, gentlemen. Today I can finally stand here proudly and announce to you that our country and our nation have finally won victory on the battlefield to safeguard national interests... Complete victory! The military has all withdrawn from the Japanese army. We have inspected the war. Our army disarmed more than 6,000 German armed forces and recovered Jiaozhou Bay and Qingdao. During the anti-aggression war against Japan, our defense force annihilated most of the living forces of the three Japanese divisions, totaling more than 70,000 people, of which 973 were captured. Six Japanese transport ships were destroyed at sea, severely damaged the Japanese Zhoufang armored ship, sunk the Baiyun torpedo destroyer, and shot down one German fighter jet and three Japanese fighter jets in the air. Three fifty-one various artillery, more than 30,000 guns, and countless ammunition funds... This is indeed a great victory!"

Yuchen stood there, looking at himself with awesome voices, and greeting the members of the parliamentarians again standing up and applauding. Even Prime Minister Song Jiaoren, the cabinet, blushed and slapped himself desperately. Victory is always the most inspiring topic.

"……………These victory was won by our National Defense Forces through heavy sacrifices. Of course, there are also the logistical forces serving the National Defense Forces in the rear and doing their best to subscribe for war bonds. The people who risked their lives to convey intelligence and transport materials to the troops in the war zone. Without these efforts, it would be impossible to win such a great victory in the face of the violent Japanese army! During the war that lasted for more than two months, our National Defense Forces paid 10,957 deaths and injured 20,000 people.

The huge price of the name of 1,633 people. The peaceful residents of the war zone also suffered considerable casualties. We paid and endured these prices, so we won! During the war, there were many heroic deeds that emerged because our soldiers and our people were proud of being the people of the New Republic of China and the national defense soldiers, and they were not afraid of sacrifice! For these pioneers on the road to national rejuvenation, we remember them, follow them, and respect them forever!"

"In this war, too many heroes appeared and the scum of the nation was discovered. But overall, our people are high and our national destiny is a stagnant trend! Our determination to defend national interests and our responsible attitude towards international affairs have been understood and recognized by countries around the world. The international status of New China has been reborn after this ashes! The Okuma Cabinet, which Japan launched this invasion war, has fallen. The new Kashitaro Cabinet has sent missions to Shanghai and the Republic of China to start the official

Aftermath negotiations, our country has been ensured, our national interests have been maintained, and our country’s pain has been lost before, and will be taken back one after another! During the negotiations, our government’s diplomats will do their best to safeguard the fruits of our victory in accordance with the three principles that must be changed in the previous statement. I believe that in the near future, we will proudly announce to all the gentlemen here that the twists and turns of the war around Qingdao in 1914, New China has won a complete victory! A new world is waving to us! The historical tide of our revival will be unstoppable!"

The crowd below was boiling at this time, and countless spotlights flashed one after another. Countless people burst into tears and cheered there, countless people slapped their hands red, and tears were filled with tears in their eyes. At this time, everyone's chest was filled with joy and pride. This feeling of pride was so sharp that it seemed to be about to tear their chests and burst out. Everyone here knew the history of humiliation in the country. They once felt that this country had no hope and felt that this nation should be heavy.

Declined. Everyone became numb and became light and dusty. But a hero appeared in the dark night. He grabbed the pulse of the times, mobilized the self-esteem and self-reliance hidden in the heart of everyone in this country, and attracted countless young people to follow him. In just a few years, although this country was still called poor and weak. However, people's psychology has completely changed. Everyone saw the hope of rise and the possibility of revival. At this moment, how could they not be so excited?

The excitement lasted for a long time and finally became quiet. Yuchen had been waiting quietly on the stage. He understood the psychology of people in this era and was proud that he could always mobilize their emotions. But he knew that behind this cheer, the road to true rise was still long.

"After this war, the surrounding areas of our country have temporarily quieted down. We have finally won valuable opportunities for peaceful development. Where should our national policy go in the face of such drastic changes in the world situation? I personally believe that at home, we should further accelerate the pace of true unification, and the National Defense Forces will march towards Tibet and Xinjiang. The current provinces and the central government need to be further strengthened. The national livelihood construction will be fully supported by the government. Now the vast market is in front of us, we need to start over and slowly catch up with others' footsteps! The unified national currency and tax system need to be improved, and the construction of railways and highways will increase investment. The armed forces must be strengthened even more. All of these are all

We need to make the best efforts and at most patience to start from bit by bit! I have the most strong confidence that our country can do all this well! For international affairs, we will carefully choose our friends and actively participate in international affairs. We will win resources and partners for our development. Since we have risen to be a member of the world's nations and maintain world justice, we must also participate in it! The President of the University is about to start a foreign visit to countries to convey the achievements of our Republic of China and the sincerity of seeking friendship. I believe that we will gain more friends internationally. But in the final analysis, we still rely on our own strength! What we need is strong, strong, or strong!"

He paused here, and his tone gradually became deeper: "Finally, I still want to talk about our opponents, Japan, in the past few months. This time they temporarily surrendered. It was not that their strength was weaker than us, but that the general trend of our country's management forced them to admit defeat. The Okuma Cabinet fell, and the Katsura Cabinet re-made Feng Fu. The military budget of the Japanese army and navy in the next year will immediately increase by 20%. The influence of the Japanese military headquarters is getting bigger and bigger... This country is running wildly in a dangerous direction. As our eastern neighbor, they founded the country with unprecedented determination, and defeated our eldest and sleeping country in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. With the help of absorbing the vitality of our country, they have developed and become stronger.

My heart is also getting bigger and bigger. If our country does not awaken at the right time, it is really hard to imagine what kind of humiliation we will suffer in the next few decades! This country has a strong sense of revenge and resilience. It also has the advantage of taking one step ahead of us. We cannot be complacent because of this victory. I here ask everyone here to be wary of Japan! In the future, due to the changes in the political structure of East Asia, the contradiction between China and Japan will continue to magnify, not to mention that in our country, there are still Japanese "legal" garrisons in our country! In Manchuria and Mongolia, they have their traditional sphere of influence! Ten years of life gathering and ten years of lessons, we also need this as the party that won this war. The future is coming to us, and our opponents are not asleep either!"

While Yuchen was making a generous speech in the parliament, Wang Jingwei, the Minister of Transportation of the Republic of China, was working in his office with a restless heart. Japan lost this time, and the bet he made was almost lost. Did Yuchen notice his actions? After his director Huang Jun came back from sending the information, he just told him everything went smoothly. Later, as the situation turned sharply, he also cut off the contact with the woodcutter agency. He was diligently buried in his work. He also made a lot of efforts in the traffic matters of the war. Does it mean that this matter has passed? It seems that the market of the Republic of China government has risen in the future, and he probably wants to be a loyal person.

The patriot is so resentful. Wang Jingwei wrote casually on paper with bored. For some reason, he always felt very uneasy. He was even afraid of seeing Yuchen. This time the cabinet participated in this assembly of the parliament, but he refused because the troops were demobilized and the traffic was busy.......... Even if Yuchen knew any clues, he probably wouldn't dare to touch me! After all, he was a senior cadre of the Kuomintang and Mr. Zhongshan's beloved disciple. Yuchen always had to take into account the influence and be careless. Isn't it? After a few years, who has no contact with the stolen figures in the political arena? People can't blame them too much, right?

Just as Wang Jingwei was thinking about it, the door of his office was gently knocked. He raised his voice and shouted, "Come in!" The door was pushed open, and a group of people surrounded his pale confidant Huang Jun and walked in. Huang Jun lowered his head and didn't dare to look at him. Among the people who came were Wang Tieshan, the director of the Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Police, who used to be a ruthless figure in the Qing Dynasty. There were also several soldiers in military uniforms, and a young soldier wearing the rank of major looked at him with obvious disgust. Wang Jingwei's heart kept sinking, and the word "disclosure" occupied all his thoughts. He heard his trembling voice asking, "What's the matter, what's the matter to me?"

Wang Tieshan took out the official documents in the document folder and said with a stern face: "Mr. Jingwei, you are suspected of betraying national strategic intelligence and selling yourself to foreign forces. Your actions have caused significant damage to national interests. Today we have obtained an arrest order jointly issued by the Presidential Office, the Prime Minister of the Government, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Police. Please follow us and explain the problem clearly."

Wang Jingwei stood up slowly, his eyes blankly and didn't know what he was thinking. Suddenly he shouted loudly: "I am the Minister of Transportation of the government, and I am also a member of the Central Standing Committee of the Kuomintang! I am a student of Mr. Zhongshan! You are slandering!" He suddenly pointed at Huang Jun, as if he had caught some life-saving straw: "It must be him, it must be his false accusation! I want to meet Mr. Dunchu, I want to meet Mr. Zhongshan, I want to meet Yuchen! You can't exclude and attack your political enemies like this!" Huang Jun was scolded by Wang Jingwei and stopped doing it: "I have long since abandoned the darkness and turned my head to the light, and have been staring at you boy! If I hadn't been afraid that the war ahead would affect the people's hearts, I would have caught you boy, why are you crazy now?"

The soldier around Wang Tieshan said coldly: "Wang Jingwei! Your position as Minister of Transportation has been removed from the position of Prime Minister Dunchu, and your position as a member of the Standing Committee of the Kuomintang will also be removed. Mr. Zhongshan has already received a telegram from the president in Hong Kong. He just said, "Everyone can be punished by a traitor in the country! Are you a traitor or something good?" Compared to his words, the contempt in the eyes of this officer made Wang Jingwei feel even more lost. Did he really do something wrong? Wang Tieshan waved his hand heavily: "Take it away!"

The aftermath of the end of this war is still rippling everywhere. Yuchen's long speeches aroused the hearts of the people across the country. Wang Jingwei's arrest also shocked the nerves of the people across the country. How could a revolutionary hero become such a thing? At the same time, the heroic representatives of the participating troops accepted Yuchen's award at the Presidential Palace. The national compulsory military service bill was quickly passed and issued in the tide of people's hearts. In Shanghai, the negotiators of China and Japan also began negotiations. This negotiation process is probably lasting for one or two months before a result can be achieved. The differences between the two sides are still huge, and Japan is not less arrogant because of failure. Sir Grey from the British had already returned to Great Britain by boat with satisfaction in completing his mission. And the US Deputy Secretary of State Mr. Lan Xin started a shuttle trip in China at this time.
