At four o'clock in the morning, Wang Yongan couldn't sleep anymore, he washed his face and continued to deal with the official documents that had not been processed last night. Wang Yongan felt a little headache www.biquge.info the official documents of the army, localities, administration, finance, construction, cases and other aspects, and he suddenly put down the official documents, looked at what had been dealt with and what had not been handled, and suddenly realized that he was becoming a dictator who did everything himself.

"It's ridiculous that I don't like dictators, but I become a dictator myself." Wang Yongan put down all the official documents, chuckled, he walked out of his dormitory in the Protector's Mansion, and saw Liu Tong lying on the wooden board and sleeping, and there were several stoves in the corridor, and the coals in the stoves were almost burned.

"This kid knows that he can change his mistakes." Wang Yongan woke up Liu Tong and asked him to go to his bedroom to sleep, how dare Liu Tong sleep again, saying that I must have a good sleep after I recover.

Wang Yongan shook his head and said, "After the recovery, you can't sleep anymore, so let's go to sleep now." Liu Tong insisted on refusing, so Wang Yongan stopped persuading, and the two had some breakfast and began to prepare the documents for today's meeting.

Li Yao handed the telegram to Wang Yongan, which was written by the secretary Bai Dequan and Wei Wenkang, the secretary, in which he denounced the Manchu Qing Dynasty for corruption and misguided the country, and the 30 million people in Jiangbei and the 240,000 new army decided to establish New China and recover Jiangbei, and called on the youth of the whole country to rise up together in the revolution, and at the same time asked Yuan Shikai not to go against the sky and stand on the opposite side of history.

Wang Yongan said with a smile after reading it: "The talents of the two of you are good, it is estimated that Yuan Shikai will be so scared that he can't sleep for a few days and nights after reading this telegram." ”

As the time passed, Wang Yongan began to get nervous, Li Yao, Xiao Xiangshan, Luo Yinxian, Feng Heng, Wei Daofeng and others reported to him one by one on the preparations, especially Xiao Xiangshan was in charge of presiding over this meeting, and everything was very detailed. Later, Wang Yongan asked Xiao Xiangshan whether he would like to stay in the army in the future or be willing to work in the Jiangbei Military Government in the future, Xiao Xiangshan smiled and said that he was suitable for leading a battalion of soldiers at most, and it was better to work in the Jiangbei Military Government. Wang Yongan promised, after this matter is over, you will be the Minister of Finance of the Jiangbei Military Government, Xiao Xiangshan smiled and nodded, this can be regarded as a reward for the old man.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the gate of the Jiangbei Protector's Mansion was opened, and the Jiangbei gentry guarding the gate walked in under the guidance of the guards and were inspected to prevent anyone from entering with weapons and disrupting the assembly.

Between 7 and 8 o'clock in the morning, people kept walking into the auditorium of the Jiangbei Protector's Mansion and sitting, and soon the auditorium was crowded.

More than 200 people, including the responsible persons of the six departments of the Jiangbei Protectorate Army, the First Division of the Jiangbei Army, the Fourth Division of the Jiangbei Army, and the Sixth Division of the Jiangbei Army stationed in Yangzhou, important officers, officials of the Yamen of the Jiangbei Protectorate Army, important officials at all levels in Jiangbei, and officials of the Yamen of the Salt Transportation Envoy Department, were all present.

At 7:40, the door was opened again, everyone thought that Wang Yongan walked in, but found that it was nearly 100 representatives of the Jiangbei gentry, including Shen Yunpei and Xu Dinglin, the three major industrialists in northern Jiangsu, Sha Yuanbing, the former president of the Hanlin Academy of Commerce in the Qing Dynasty, and Gu Yanqing, the leader of the Jianghuai Literati Group, and Gu Yanqing, the head of the famous five talented sons of Jiangsu.

They were all acquaintances, knew each other, and soon greeted each other and whispered to each other. Everyone talked about it, and some smart people had already guessed what it was, and even if they were not smart, they felt the slightest breath of war from the tense atmosphere, and some people even thought that Jiangbei would make an important decision, and this decision would affect everything in Jiangbei, from top to bottom, from the army to the people.

"Recovery!" Shen Yunpei whispered in Xu Dinglin's ear.

Xu Dinglin smiled, then shook his head and said: "If this is the case, Jiangbei is in danger, and the whole country is lucky." Does Wang Jingyun really dare to announce his recovery? It's a big risk. ”

"If that weren't the case, how could we be here?" Shen Yunpei said very confidently, "Wang Jingyun has the ambition of Lingyun, at this time the north and the south are armistice, if he does not make waves, he will not be Wang Jingyun." ”

Xu Dinglin asked: "Why hasn't the champion arrived?" Isn't he the best relationship with Wang Jingyun? ”

Shen Yunpei said: "Champion Lang, I'm afraid I have already guessed what Wang Jingyun wants to do at this time, he is the champion hand-picked by Lafayette, if he supports the recovery in Yangzhou at this time, I am afraid that he will not be able to lose face, lest he be said to be a capricious person." ”

"Jiangbei's recovery is imperative, what does he have to worry about." Xu Dinglin shook his head and said, "He is a civil official, if Jiangbei recovers, can he oppose it?" The general trend is that he is just going with the flow, and no one will say anything about him. ”

"Our old friend...... Shen Yunpei said, "he can see farther than us." ”

Several important military commanders sat on the side of the rostrum and also discussed something in a low voice, except for Jiang Dengxuan, who had already left early, the heads of various departments sat on the stage one by one, except for the vacant position in the middle.

The heads of the six departments of the Jiangbei Protectorate looked at each other, and their eyes showed a hint of eagerness and excitement, and of course some nervousness, because they did not know how many of the officers, officials, and gentry in Jiangbei were still loyal to the Manchu court, and how many supported the revolution.

Compared with the Wuchang Uprising, Jiangbei Guangfu does not seem to be so purposeful for the rejuvenation of the country and the nation, but because Yuan Shikai is ready to join forces with Sun Yat-sen to deal with Jiangbei, after Jiangbei's long-standing independence policy has been threatened, Guangfu has become a last resort. The generals of Jiangbei did not really make efforts for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation and the glory of the Han nation in their hearts, they thought about their own interests. Therefore, in the hearts of many officers, this liberation has no glory of justice at all - so everyone does not regard the historical significance of the liberation as very important, and those are nothing more than used to fool young people who do not understand politics.

Of course, beautiful things must be said, they must be said, and they must be said in a way that others cannot refute, and Wang Yongan's speech has been repeatedly revised. But even so, the generals are still worried, and I hope that this time the recovery will go smoothly.

Huo Diange's pro-military camp has secretly surrounded this place, and once someone opposes the recovery, they will be killed, so if the next decision is stopped, this will be a bloody recovery.

"The Protector has arrived!" The guards announced, everyone stopped talking, raised their heads and looked at the door, only to see a soldier wearing a silver-gray woolen military uniform, a big cap, a white cloak, and cowhide boots walked in, his left hand pressed the command knife at his waist, and his right hand ripped off the cloak and put it on the adjutant's hand, smiling at everyone.
