Chapter 942 The Last Strike (asking for a monthly pass)
While Wang Ye was attending the graduation ceremony, another big event was happening!
The joint investigation team led by Dania announced the formal investigation of Luzhkov, and sent an official letter to the Kremlin for approval. The Duma will go through the process of removing Luzhkov from the governorship!
As for why Luzhkov has not been officially determined to have committed a crime, he should be removed from his position first.
This is because his governorship is elected and has a certain degree of judicial immunity, so he must be removed from office before the judicial process can continue.
Of course, daring to take this step also shows that the joint investigation team has enough confidence to determine Luzhkov's crime.
Otherwise, the Kremlin would never approve it.
Because once Luzhkov turns the tables and cannot convict him, not only the Joint Investigation Team will be held accountable, but even the Kremlin will be implicated, and the reputation will be greatly damaged!
The process that Luzhkov talked to Konov on the phone two days ago is being put into reality...
Once the news was announced, there was an uproar immediately.
The entire Moscow political arena was shocked.
This is Luzhkov!
A political giant who has already emerged in the former Soviet Union!
If it wasn't for bad luck, or a combination of circumstances, they would all be the ones who might enter the Kremlin Palace!
Now it is a big joke that a girl in her early twenties has been declared guilty of a crime!
Most politicians who don't know the inside story plan to wait to see the joke.
They felt that it was absolutely impossible for the Kremlin to approve this application, because once approved, it would mean a complete turnaround with the entire Moscow faction.
At that time, the entire political arena will be in chaos, and even the country may be in turmoil!
This consequence is unbearable to anyone, and it is something that the Kremlin never wants to see...
So, even if Luzhkov really has some problems, even if the Kremlin wants to oust him again, he will not act so rashly.
But those who really know the inside story are shocked, but at the same time, their hearts are extremely complicated.
They understand that the so-called joint investigation team is just a **** on the surface, and the person who really plays chess is Mikhail, the first deputy speaker of the Duma!
The announcement of the joint investigation team means that Mikhail is going to deal with Luzhkov and the Moscow faction!
Besides, since the news is made public in such a high-profile way, it should be that an agreement has been reached with the Kremlin and other factions in the Duma...
Sure enough, the Kremlin responded later that day after the Joint Investigation Team released the news, approving the application!
At the same time, the application was forwarded to Duma Speaker Gryzlov, and the Duma was urged to hold an emergency meeting immediately to vote on this.
These are obvious actions.
At the same time, some things that are not easy to be noticed are also happening at the same time.
For example, the Moscow Regional Command of the Ministry of Internal Affairs has entered a first-level alert state, and the two independent secret service divisions under its jurisdiction have all been mobilized and can enter a combat state at any time!
Because they were originally stationed in a military camp in the suburbs, even if they were mobilized, people outside would not know about it.
But these actions naturally cannot be hidden from those people with high enough status...
In the city of Moscow, the situation is also faintly tense. The most intuitive thing is that there are suddenly more police officers patrolling the streets.
Moscow City Bureau, Flamir ordered all police officers to return to the team, the urban patrol force was doubled, and all were equipped with live ammunition.
He himself sits in the city bureau and never leaves his post 24 hours a day!
Oh, by the way, Norwich, the executive deputy director of the Municipal Bureau, has been transferred from his post and "upgraded" to the post of deputy director of the Archives Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He has been promoted!
All these actions are of course to prevent the Moscow faction from jumping over the wall.
In the Moscow state government building, Luzhkov is in his office, listening to reports from his subordinates.
"Governor, tomorrow the Duma will hold a general assembly to vote. If it passes, then you..."
Luzhkov looked ugly.
He didn't expect that things really came to this point!
Although he also mentioned this scenario with Konov, it was just a random guess. Both of them felt that it was impossible to realize it, because the Moscow faction and Mikhail did not have such a big hatred, so it is impossible!
But now that the facts are in front of him, he can't help but not believe it.
Luzhkov has only one feeling now, that is, he doesn't know Mikhail too well!
This kid is so ruthless!
Just because someone from his own faction put him behind his back and made him a little bit of a clown, he ended up uprooting the entire Moscow faction!
Since the other party is unkind, don't blame yourself for being unrighteous!
However, what should I do...
Waved his hand and let the assistant go out, leaving him alone in the big office.
Take out a box of cigars from the drawer, snip it, light it, and take a deep puff.
The face shrouded in smoke flickered.
Luzhkov seldom smokes, and only smokes a cigar occasionally, but he is used to lighting a cigar when he is thinking about some important things or encountering particularly difficult problems.
Forced resistance?
He really thought about this seriously, but think about the pitiful weapons and equipment of his security company, and the attitude of the Kremlin.
He simply gave up this unrealistic idea.
Relying on that security company, he might be able to protect himself from escaping, and it must be before the other party actually starts the arrest operation.
But the question is, the other party has just started to act, and the Duma has not approved his dismissal, so should he give up everything?
Luzhkov is not reconciled!
He feels that the matter has not reached that point, and there is still room for salvation.
If you can veto the joint working group's application for dismissal at the Duma level, everything will get better.
Thinking of this, Luzhkov immediately called Konov.
When Luzhkov received the call, Konov was also shutting himself in the office, smoking and meditating.
Obviously he also got the news and was thinking about what to do next.
Not only the future of the faction, but also your own future...
"Old man, you should have received the news, what should we do now, I want to hear your opinion." On the phone, Luzhkov spoke in a more polite tone than usual.
Konov grinned silently. He could probably guess why Luzhkov was calling.
Because the removal procedure for Luzhkov is about to come to the Duma, the Duma Congress will be held tomorrow!
He paused, pretending to be confused, and said: "Hey, I just received the news, and I haven't figured it out yet. What are they going to do! Our faction doesn't have any deep hatred with Mikhail, right? Why are we killing them all like this? , This is too much! By the way, didn't you protest to the Kremlin, you can't let them do anything wrong."
Luzhkov is not in the mood to go around in circles with him. What time is it? Konov may not be in a hurry, but he has to be in a hurry...
He said in a blunt tone:
"Old man, the eyebrows are burning now, we must do something, if I am really dismissed, do you think our faction can still stand in the Duma?
In the next general election of the Duma, if there are no votes from the large electoral district of Moscow State, how many seats do you think you can get! "
Luzhkov made sense, Konov sighed and became serious.
At this time, we really can't have any selfishness. We must work together to overcome this difficulty.
He thought about it, and then said cautiously: "I think, we need to snipe in Duma first, as long as we can get them stuck here in Duma, that joint team won't be able to make any waves.
After all, you are the elected governor after all, and no one can directly remove you from office.
But you also know that our faction only has so many seats in the Duma. If the other major factions unite, we will definitely be unable to stop it.
The question now is, are they really teaming up!
Moreover, what price can we offer in exchange for the support of people from other factions! "
These remarks are considered to be on point, and they are similar to what Luzhkov considered.
So, Luzhkov replied without hesitation:
"I have also analyzed this just now. The two factions of Mikhail and Zhirinov must be determined to kill me, so it is difficult for them to win votes for the two factions.
Then our only hope is Gryzlov's side!
Although we had a bad relationship with Gryzlov and the others before, time has passed and the situation is different now.
Moreover, it was Mikhail who targeted me this time.
Judging from recent events, I don't think the Hiravik Group has reached an agreement to deal with me. That is to say, Gryzlov and their votes can still be won.
Of course, the premise is that we have to pay enough!
I am also mentally prepared, this time I will really bleed.
So, I'm going to take out
After listening to Luzhkov's words, Konov was silent for a long time, because he was shocked by the number Luzhkov said.
After a while, he asked back in disbelief: "So many! Do you think this is necessary?"
Although Luzhkov has been in politics for so many years, he has always firmly held the governorship of the richest Moscow state in Russia, and has made huge wealth through various channels.
But his expenses are not small, and he also spends a lot of money every time he runs for governor.
In addition to maintaining the operation of the faction, this requires Luzhkov to subsidize a lot of funds, so his real net worth is not too high.
Konov feels that it is not worth spending such a large sum of money all of a sudden just to buy enough votes in the Duma.
Luzhkov smiled bitterly, and said helplessly:
"I can't help it!
To be honest, I feel distressed when such a large sum of money is spent. In the past, I always felt that I was firmly seated in the position of governor and was elected, and no one could move me at all.
Now after going through this incident, I realize that I overestimated myself and underestimated others!
There are still a few people in the political arena who can move me, and once they make up their minds to do it, I don't even have the ability to resist!
Hey, old man, let me tell you something from my heart.
If I can pass the test this time, I will retire when this governor's term ends and I will not run for the next governor's election.
This country is no longer what it used to be, nor does it belong to an old guy like me. "
Konov was silent, and he also agreed with Luzhkov's words.
Indeed, both himself and Luzhkov are old!
Especially looking at Mikhail, and then looking at myself, this feeling is even stronger...
After receiving Luzhkov's entrustment, Konov immediately started to act.
He first called Gryzlov, then went to Gryzlov's office, closed the door and chatted for a long time.
No one can know what was talked about.
When he walked out of Gryzlov's office, Konov was also expressionless, and he didn't see anything unusual at all.
And Gryzlov did not have any abnormalities, but after Konov left, he made several phone calls in a row...
Wang Ye is not ignorant of the actions of the Moscow faction.
Including Konov's activities in the Duma, he also received the news immediately.
After attending the school's graduation ceremony, Wang Ye went directly back to work in the Duma office and listened to Dania's work report.
This is the case at the moment, and tomorrow the Duma Congress will decide Luzhkov's fate.
Once the application for dismissal is approved, we will immediately arrest him. In order to prevent him from fleeing early, I have also deployed a lot of people near the state capital to monitor.
But now he is still the governor after all, if he really finds a reason to go out of town, it's really hard to stop him. "
Dania said with a frown.
Wang Ye smiled lightly, and said casually:
"If he really fled, it would be a good thing, it means that he has given up all resistance!
But looking at his actions now, it shows that he still does not give up. At the Duma meeting tomorrow, I guess there will be twists and turns. "
Dania was stunned for a moment, and then she understood what Wang Ye meant, and she suddenly realized:
"Yes, if he really absconds abroad, then our ultimate goal has been achieved.
Now that Konov is active in the Duma, he has privately met with many senior members of parliament, especially those from the first faction. It seems that they plan to exert their strength at tomorrow's Duma meeting.
But boss, you should be confident enough to vote in tomorrow's general assembly. "
Wang Ye laughed and waved his hands, "There is really no such thing, and I can only guarantee that there will be no problems with our faction's tickets.
Of course, Uncle Zhirinov's side should not be a big problem, after all, he hates the Moscow faction, especially Luzhkov.
It is too difficult to instigate him.
But it's hard to say about the first faction.
Looking at the voting results tomorrow, we will know who is on our side and who is on the opposite side..."
It's the last day, don't waste your monthly pass.
