Chapter 581

The power of vilanto and prabovo can not be underestimated. The governors of 20 provinces of 27 provinces in Indonesia have been drawn into their camp. There are 12 provinces in vilanto and 8 in prabovo. And the members of the parliament, too, were almost villanto and prabovo. In other words, Suharto's contacts and influence over the years were almost divided between them.

Now, after decades of informing Indonesia, Suharto, like an emperor, has been pulled out of power. In order to stabilize Indonesia, which is in turmoil, Habibi will serve as president temporarily. This result is determined by many aspects. First, although Habibi and Suharto are not related by blood, they are the same father and son. Moreover, Suharto has decided to let habi be his successor. Although Suharto's forces have been divided up by vilanto and prabovo, there are still three Jin nails in the broken ship. With Suharto's support, Habibi is not weak.

On the other hand, Indonesia is now like a mess that will collapse at any time. If Wahid takes the presidency immediately after Suharto's resignation, he will have to face all the contradictions in Indonesia, including those high-level generals who have schemed, and the civilians who have accumulated strong resentment because of the economic recession. By then, Wahid is likely to be the target.

Therefore, under Zhou Hao's instruction, Wahid did not immediately fight for the presidency, and those in Congress also acquiesced to Habibi's acting president because they were instructed by vilanto and prabovo.

Both in the original history and in the present, Habibi has become a shield for the next president and serves as a transitional role. Now, although Habibi is the president, he does not have the power of the government and the army, and he is just a nominal puppet. Moreover, the Indonesian government has passed a resolution to hold a general election in half a year.

The general election six months later is the ultimate goal of Wahid and Zhou Hao.

According to the order of the first army, vilanto and prabovo both invited the governors of their supporting provinces to Jakarta in their own name. The governors of those 20 provinces did not know that villanto and prabovo were under control. They thought that they were going to fight for the president for the last time, so they were invited to help.

At the appointed time, the governors, most of whom are military generals, came to Jakarta one after another.

On this side of vilanto's official residence, a series of high-end Mercedes Benz cars came in one after another.

"Why? Why are general villanto's bodyguards so fresh that they were all replaced before? " When the governor of East Sumatra saw that the soldiers and guards in his official residence were totally different from what he had seen before, he was puzzled.

The governor of Wandan said: "this is also very normal. I'm afraid the struggle between general vilanto and prabovo has reached a heated stage. In the past, those bodyguards couldn't have the undercover of prabovo. It would be safer to rotate all the personnel."

The rest of the people also nodded after hearing the speech. When they were about to enter the inner room, several soldiers in front of the door said coldly: "sorry, everyone, in view of the protection of the general's safety, we can only let you in. As for your bodyguards and guards, please stay outside."

"What do you mean, general, can't he trust us?" The governor of West Nusa Tenggara was discontented.

The soldier was still expressionless: "I'm sorry, this is all the general's orders, please forgive me. Because the general has been assassinated more than ten times in just five or six days, we have to strengthen our defense. "

Although they were still dissatisfied, they also knew that villanto's request was justifiable. What's more, they had hoped to continue to be their frontier minister after the change of office, so they didn't dare to disobey him. So they had to leave their bodyguards and entourage outside and walked in under the leadership of villanto.

There was a special conference room in the mansion, all twelve governors were brought in, and villanto had been waiting for them at the chief. In the conference room, there were more than a dozen cold looking guards. People thought that villanto had arranged so many people to ensure the safety of the secret meeting, so they didn't pay much attention to it.

A few of these governors were old comrades in arms who had a deep friendship with villanto. Naturally, they were gathering with each other this time. At the same time, they were also expressing to others that they had an extraordinary friendship with villanto.

As they sat down one after another, the governor of East Sumatra said with a smile: "general vilanto, now that the old Suharto has been pulled out of power, you are the only one to be the president. I congratulate you first."

Other people flattered vilanto, and the governor of Wandan said, "although Habibi is now acting as president, he has always been ambitious and talented. If Suharto didn't give him all his strength, he would be nothing. However, in the presidential election half a year later, he will not be able to pick up a bargain again. You can rest assured, general, that we will certainly support you as president! "

"Thank you for your kindness." Villanto laughed, but his heart was filled with grief.

After a pause, he said: "however, Indonesia is suffering from internal and external troubles. At home, the national economy has been rapidly retrogressed due to the financial crisis. The people are very dissatisfied with our government, and the East Timor side is not calm. Those people always want to be independent. Externally, after the previous conflict, China's international image has been greatly affected. All countries are unwilling to provide assistance to us, and some even intend to sanction US. "All the people present know what their country is like, but they don't care much. As long as they can keep their power and wealth, everything else is not important to them. Moreover, they believe that since vilanto intends to become president, he must have corresponding countermeasures on how to govern Indonesia, so they all keep silent and look at him at the same time.

As expected, villanto continued: "if you want Indonesia to come out of this predicament, I think the most urgent thing is to solve the domestic contradictions. If you want to attract foreign countries, you must first settle the internal affairs."

Wandan governor quickly flattered: "the general is right, the general must have thought of a way, you may say, we will try our best to cooperate."

"It would be best if you would cooperate." Villanto said with a smile: "I know that because of Suharto's perverse actions in recent decades, the people in China are very dissatisfied with him, and even extremely exclude military participation in politics. In my opinion, military participation in politics has great drawbacks. Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth development of Indonesia, I would like to put forward a proposal to the Congress to order a ban on military personnel from serving as senior officials, so as to curb the trend of military dictatorship. "

On hearing this, all the twelve governors present were shocked, for nine of them were also commanders of the local army, and villanto's view was obviously to seize their power.

"General, do you mean you're not going to run for president, either?" Asked the governor of East Sumatra, squinting.

"That's right." "I have decided to do my best to support Wahid's presidential campaign," said villanto lightly

The governor of Wandan suppressed his anger and said calmly, "general, you invited us all here to say this?"

Villanto nodded and heard the governor of Wandan say angrily, "hum! I didn't expect that we would support such a rubbish as you. Well, I'll go to prabovo now and support him as president

Others nodded, but villanto shook his head with a wry smile. "It's no use. Prabovo will support Wahid as much as I can, so you don't have to waste your time."

"Wahid, who is that guy who can make you and prabovo give up the presidency and support him instead?" The governor of East Sumatra was surprised.

Villanto didn't answer, just slowly shaking his head. At this time, when he saw his old comrades' faces changing, he said, "a friend, I'll advise you to have a game. You can't think of going back to your respective jurisdiction, because now, I'm afraid your local political power and military power have changed

"Nonsense. My men are my confidants. If they are there, others will try to gain my power, unless he destroys all my troops." Wan Dan's governor sneered.

Villanto said with a smile: "ha ha, don't be so naive. Think for yourself, as long as you are not here, they can take your place. Do you think they will help you protect your power? Sober up, your men are the ones who take your power

From the moment they entered Jakarta, their territory was doomed to be no longer under their control. Villanto knows that the political power and military power of these 12 provinces should be under the control of the "first army" as scheduled, and the same is true for prabovo. The eight provinces are all of the same fate.

As for the remaining seven provinces, although they did not support vilanto or prabovo, vilanto knew that if the governors had not been bribed by heavy profits, they had gone to Wahid, or had been removed by the "first army" in other ways.

Thinking of this, villanto can not help but lament in his heart: "the end, our country will fall into the hands of those Chinese, we Indonesia will be finished."
