Wang Yongan uncharacteristically rejected Zhang Jian at this time, and if the issue of the capital is not solved now, the time for reunification will definitely be delayed in the future. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 It was precisely Sun Yat-sen and Huang Xing's insistence on fixing the capital in Nanjing that the negotiations could not reach the substance, how could Yuan Shikai come to Nanjing, and the revolutionary party had to make a compromise on this.

Historically, because of the issue that the revolutionary parties must set the capital of Nanjing, Yuan Shikai secretly instructed Cao Kun's army to launch the Beijing Division Mutiny, and Yuan Shikai took the opportunity to tell the southern revolutionary government that it was not that he did not want to go to Nanjing, but that the soldiers did not let him go to Nanjing, and staged a farce of Dingdu. Wang Yongan could have sat and watched the big show, but now that the Japanese are gathering a large army on the Korean Peninsula, they are eyeing the northeast.

At the end of the Qing Dynasty, many southerners were unclear about the strategic significance of Northeast China to China, such as Sun Yat-sen, who initially ceded Northeast China to Japan in exchange for Japanese support. With the improvement of the revolutionary situation in the country, Sun Yat-sen's overall view became stronger and stronger, and finally he uncharacteristically refused to cede the Northeast, so the Japanese were anxious and angry with Sun Yat-sen, and turned to support Zhang Zuolin, the old fox. The Japanese thought that Zhang Zuolin, who was illiterate in big characters, would definitely be controlled by them, but they did not expect to be played by this warlord from Liaoning who was born as a groom several times, and Zhang Zuolin, as a junior in Beiyang, was even more reckless in the territorial issue.

Many people in later generations scoffed at Sun Yat-sen's promise to cede Northeast China to the Japanese, but they did not know that Sun Yat-sen later opposed the cession of Northeast China, and the reason why the Kuomintang later chose to cooperate with the Soviet Union was that he was unwilling to accept the Japanese's conditions.

As a traverser, Wang Yongan knew too well the strategic significance of Northeast China to China, and in the first 40 years of the founding of New China, it was entirely the economic sacrifice of the three northeastern provinces that carried New China forward.

In 1945, the Northeast was ruled by Manchukuo, and its GDP surpassed that of Japan to become the largest economy in Asia, and became the world's fourth largest economy after the United States, the Soviet Union, and the United Kingdom. The reason why the War of Liberation first took place in the Northeast and why our party had to fight for the Northeast is because the economic energy of the Northeast is still the first in Asia even after the great sack of the Soviet Red Army in the dog days. The war was fought against the economy, and the KMT was defeated by our party because the GDP of the KMT-ruled area was only one-third of the GDP of the Northeast. Therefore, no matter how well equipped the national army is, no matter how many troops there are, and no matter how much the Americans support it, the common people in the national control area are still in dire straits, and how can ordinary people not support our party, which is economically strong.

Russia and the Soviet Union took advantage of the Chinese civil war to forcibly snatch Mongolia and massacre pro-Chinese people, Slavophilizing Mongolia and hating China, so that China permanently lost this 1.56 million square kilometers of land. If it weren't for the decision of the Beiyang politicians to establish the four provinces of Suiyuan, Chahar, Rehe, and Ningxia, even the 1.18 million square kilometers of Inner Mongolia would have been gradually taken away by the Russians.

Thinking of this, Wang Yongan insisted: "Maybe Yuan Shikai has his own selfish thoughts about Dingdu Jingshi, but the purpose of my support for Dingdu Jingshi is for the country, in order to enable China to effectively control Mongolia and Northeast China, and in order to avoid the loss of Chinese territory." The Qing Dynasty has been infamous for losing the Outer Northwest and the Outer Northeast, and if Mongolia and the Northeast are lost in our hands, you and I will die without turning a blind eye and leaving a stench for eternity. Gong Zhongshan, Brother Keqiang, I support you in everything, but I support Dingdu Jingshi only in the matter of the capital, but I don't support Yuan Shikai. ”

Facts have proved that Sun Yat-sen's worries are not unreasonable, and the Republic of China established in Beijing has gradually become a military government, but it is precisely because of the establishment of the military government that the Northeast and Mongolia have been temporarily retained, but the Kuomintang government after the capital of Nanjing has lost Mongolia and then the Northeast.

Sun and Huang looked at each other, knowing that Wang Yongan would never change his mind, and after the two discussed, Sun Yat-sen said to Wang Yongan: "In principle, the two of us do not object to the capital of Jingshi, but we need to discuss it with others after returning to Nanjing." ”

Wang Yongan said with a smile: "This is very good, the reunification of the whole country requires everyone to give up their own interests, and everyone's common compromise is." ”

The two sides met in Pukou for two days and two nights, and privately issued an agreement on "uniting the north and the south, containing Yuan Shikai, and promoting national reunification." After that, Sun Yat-sen and Huang Xing returned to Nanjing and sent a telegram to Yuan Shikai, saying that they were willing to support reunification and hoped to formulate a national constitution as soon as possible. In order to do a good job in publicity, Sun Yat-sen and others held a grand press conference, at which he expressed the hope of the southern revolutionary government for national reunification and the fear that Yuan Shikai's family would be the dominant one.

Yuan Shikai also responded to Sun Yat-sen by telegram, hoping that Sun Yat-sen would immediately resign as the provisional president of the Republic of China, so that he could rightfully become the president of the Republic of China. So the two sides fought a verbal war on the electrification, and gradually this way of telegraph fighting made everyone see another position, and the electrification position was really a major feature of the Republic of China.

And these days Jiangbei is also under the personal leadership of Wang Yongan to restore the construction of Jiangbei people's livelihood, the time has come to August, this year's Jiangbei drought, coupled with several wars in Jiangbei some time ago, led to a serious decline in the living standards of the people in Jiangbei. Wang Yongan felt deeply remorseful for this, but fortunately, there was no need to fight in the future, and even if there was a war, it would only take place in the uninhabited Changbai Mountain area in the northeast.

According to statistics, the population of Northeast China was 3 million in 1840, 6 million in 1890, about 19 million in 1912 (including 12 million in Liaoning), and 30 million in 1930. After 918, in order to control the population of Northeast China, Japan initially adopted a policy of prohibiting immigration to Northeast China, but with the needs of the Pacific War, Japan began to force strong young people from Shandong, Henan, Hebei, and Jiangsu to immigrate to Northeast China in 1940, reaching millions every year. (But after Japan's defeat in World War II, nearly half of the young immigrants were forced to flee back to their hometowns.)

On the one hand, Wang Yongan restored the people's livelihood and economy in Jiangbei, and on the other hand, he also assigned combat tasks to Feng Heng and other staff officers, demanding that the Japanese army should be held back in the northeast in this battle. Although China's economy at this time was inferior to Japan's, if the war lasted longer, the more unfavorable it would be to Japan, so Wang Yongan's request to the General Staff was that this war would not seek to defeat Japan, but to drag Japan to death.

At the end of August, Yuan Shikai and the Empress Dowager Longyu reached the "Preferential Conditions for the Qing Family", which mainly had three major articles, the first was that Emperor Puyi lived in the Forbidden City with the courtesy of a foreign monarch, and allocated 4 million taels of silver every year, the second was that it was not allowed to confiscate the imperial property, and the third was that all ethnic groups of Manchu, Mongolian, Tibetan and Hui ethnic groups were equal to the Han and not discriminatory, and that the title should be retained and the principle of freedom of belief should be maintained.

At this point, the pace of national unification is unstoppable, the era of the Republic of China is coming, and the Qing Dynasty has completely become history. And Wang Yongan, who has delayed the pace of history, has only slightly reduced his sense of historical guilt at this moment, and he has finally done some good things to put history on the right track.
