After the date of Li Zhen's inauguration was determined, everything moved in the direction of national establishment.
At the same time, the location of Li Zhen's inauguration was also determined.
The place of inauguration was at Tiananmen Square in Beijing. Only Li Zhen’s confidants knew the time and place of inauguration. Next, intensive preparations for the inauguration ceremony began. This was not a simple task. We did not talk about detailed work arrangements, just guarantees. Li Zhen's safety issue is the most important problem.
The person responsible for Li Zhen's safety was Zuo Zongtang, assisted by Liu Jintang, Long Ao, Zhao Liewen and others, who went all out to prepare for Li Zhen's inauguration ceremony.
In addition, this is not only the inauguration time, but also the founding day, which is particularly important.
As time passed and news of Li Zhen's inauguration and the founding of the People's Republic of China became commonplace, the city gradually calmed down.
However, all preparations are still going on.
October 1st, seven o'clock in the morning.
On this day, the sun had risen early, and a golden ray of light broke through the clouds and illuminated the earth. The entire eastern sky was golden, and the earth was also bathed in the golden light.
A hundred meters away from the city tower, countless people gathered.
In front of the people were the troops stationed.
At the same time, the soldiers dispatched by Zuo Zongtang in charge of Li Zhen's safety had already entered the common people in plain clothes. At around 7:30, military leaders successively boarded the tower to prepare for things on the tower. At 7:50 On the left and right, Li Zhen, Huang Shihai, Zuo Zongtang, Zeng Guofan, Lu Shaochuan, Zhao Liewen and others all took their positions, climbed onto the tower, and stood on the tower waiting for the time to come.
At this moment, everyone was extremely excited.
Among the participants, no one wore Manchu official uniforms. They were all dressed in military uniforms and looked tough.
Including vibration, the same is true.
The person in charge of this matter was Zeng Guofan. At eight o'clock, Zeng Guofan stood up on time. Facing the crowd of people outside the tower, he shouted loudly: "Now, let's ask President Li Zhen to speak."
After finishing speaking, Zeng Guofan began to applaud.
After this action started, the soldiers closest to the Tiananmen gate began to applaud, and then the people outside. In fact, because there was no loudspeaker, and Zeng Guofan's voice was not too loud, not many people heard it. , only the soldiers near the Tiananmen gate heard it. When the common people saw the soldiers applauding, they also joined in the fun and started applauding, which heightened the atmosphere.
The atmosphere at the scene was very lively.
Li Zhen stood on the tower. He was extremely excited as he watched the soldiers below making love.
Li Zhen's heart was boiling and shaking.
For this day and this moment, he spent several years and struggled for several years before this moment was born.
Li Zhen took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, calmed himself down, and then raised his hand to press down. After it was completely quiet down below, Li Zhen took a breath and roared loudly: "Brothers, sisters and fellow citizens across the country, today, We can be very proud to say that our China has been established. The Manchu Qing Dynasty has become a thing of the past. The dynasty that enslaved the people has passed. Now, a free China is born. The Chinese people can stand tall and proudly say, I am Chinese. .”
He paused slightly, and the people around him immediately applauded.
Li Zhen's voice was different from Zeng Guofan's. It was louder and more confident. His shouting voice spread farther. In addition to soldiers, some common people could also hear Li Zhen's voice clearly.
After the applause, Li Zhen motioned for everyone to quiet down.
Li Zhen pondered for a moment and continued loudly: "Since I joined the army, there have been constant battles, big and small. I can't remember exactly how many battles I participated in. I was very excited and excited in every battle I participated in, because every time Every battle is beneficial to our country and our future. The more battles we win, the more scared foreigners become and make them uncomfortable. However, the excitement in the past has never made me feel like it does today. It makes my blood boil and makes me feel excited.”
"On this day, our new country was born, our China was born."
"I used to stay up all night because of this, it was so exciting."
"But I have never been as anxious as I am today."
Li Zhen almost shouted at the top of his lungs: "Before this, I led troops to fight and managed the people in a corner of the country. Now, I am responsible for tens of millions of brothers and sisters. Suddenly, I shoulder such a heavy responsibility. I feel very stressed. This kind of thing requires people with extraordinary intelligence and extraordinary tolerance to be competent. I am an ordinary person with insufficient abilities, so I feel very anxious. I am always thinking about how to make the country strong. "
"Everyone trusts me and allows me to serve as the first president. I thank you all."
"The only thing I dare to assert is that I will fulfill my duties and do my best to work hard for the development of the country and strive to achieve the goal of a strong country. I hope that everyone can share weal and woe with me and build this rich and beautiful country together."
"I love my motherland, and I work hard with love. No matter what the result is, I will work tirelessly. I believe that in the next ten years of my term, our country will undergo earth-shaking changes. I I will do my best to ensure that the people can have enough to eat, not go hungry, and have no shortage of clothes to wear. I believe that if I can do it, the country will certainly be able to do it."
After Li Zhen finished speaking, there was silence below.
After nearly half a minute, loud applause suddenly broke out.
"Pah, pah, pah,,."
The sound was endless, resounding in the sky above Tiananmen Gate.
At this moment, after eight o'clock, the golden sunshine shone down, shining on the Tiananmen Gate Tower, imprinting the people on the tower with a layer of golden light. Countless people cheered for it, and countless people celebrated for it, all celebrating this moment. A moment has come, because this country has completely changed its people, and the era of dynasties has become a thing of the past.
Li Zhen waved greetings from the tower and celebrated with the people below.
"Boom, boom,,."
The sound of cannons was heard, and a series of salutes began to explode.
Outside the Tiananmen Gate Tower in Beijing, there was a sea of joy, and all the people were immersed in joy. After the subsequent celebrations, Li Zhen left the Tiananmen Gate Tower under the protection of soldiers and headed for the Presidential Palace. The Presidential Palace is located in Zhongnanhai, where the former emperors used to visit and rest.
In the living room, after everyone sat down, Li Zhen looked at everyone sitting in the hall, smiled slightly, and said: "Today, the founding and inauguration of the country were successfully completed, thanks to everyone's help. Here, I would like to express my gratitude. "
The crowd was very happy and applauded.
Li Zhen said: "I have assumed the office of president, and the general framework has been set. Next, the rest of the people should also make arrangements. For the rest of the people, I will appoint them one by one and arrange the next work."
Everyone held their breath and concentrated, waiting for Li Zhen to announce.
