Chapter 253: The Southwest Wants to Move
Congress, not so much a fig leaf, as well as the imperial history of the new era, when the emperor is in charge of affairs and the emperor makes trouble, when the president is in charge of affairs, he shakes his wit with the president, and now the prime minister is in charge, and he actually unites the president to wrestle with the prime minister, when a recall order drives away Duan Qirui, and before these people have time to celebrate with the crown, Li Yuanhong, a former comrade-in-arms, dissolved the entire parliament, thinking that he could learn from his predecessor Emperor Hong Xian, who turned his hands into clouds and covered his hands for rain from then on, but forgot that at this time the use of soldiers is the king of grass, Within a few days, Zhang Xun, who was invited to suppress the formation, invited out the emperor, and within a few days, Duan Qirui Ma Factory swore to build a republic of three times. One by one, these dissolved members of the National Assembly cheerfully welcomed their former political enemies into Beijing, but they could never have imagined that Duan Qirui had already seen through their minds, and was unwilling to convene members to reconvene the National Assembly, but instead organized a provisional Senate with Liang Qichao and others to form a new government. If this kind of thing is placed abroad, it is no problem, but Premier Duan, who is both top-notch in internal and military affairs, has forgotten that this is in China, and cutting off people's financial routes is tantamount to killing people's parents and smashing people's jobs, and he will definitely resent the ninth generation.
On this day, some congressmen got together privately again, and when they were officially eating meat, drinking wine, and playing with beauties, I don't know who complained about the stupidity of opposing Duan Qirui with the white-eyed wolf Li Yuanhong, which caused everyone to sigh, and under the gloomy clouds, the wine became sour, the wine and meat were stinky, and the beauties also became vulgar fans, and there was a sense of the end of the world.
"Is this prime minister really going to fight to the end with us MPs?" A gray-haired congressman said angrily.
"That stubborn donkey has recognized something, even President Yuan can't get it, I think it's no fun, let's hurry up and think of something else!" A young man with a suit jacket over his kaftan said.
"He Duan Qirui is the prime minister, and we are not inferior to him as members of Congress, he is high-flying, can no one cure him? Li Yuanhong is a mud bodhisattva who can be kneaded by him, but President Feng is not easy to mess with, it's a big deal that we will assist President Feng Da and sink him as the prime minister! A shrewd man said contemptuously.
As soon as this suggestion was put forward, everyone's eyes lit up, and they couldn't help but be excited, and gradually felt that the wine in the cup became wonderful again, the meat in the mouth was fragrant and crispy, and the woman under him was also charming and moving, at this time a thin man stood up and said: "Everyone be quiet, listen to what I say!" ”
When everyone's eyes looked at this person, they saw this person standing on a table, and said with righteousness and awe: "Duan Qirui and Feng Guozhang are all warlords, and they can't tolerate people, so it's hard to protect them from unloading and killing donkeys!" I don't think it's a good way out to defect to Feng Guozhang, so it's better to ......"
"What's the better of it, you say!" The councillors below couldn't help but ask curiously.
The thin man smiled slightly, and said: "Zhang Xun restoration, Mr. Zhongshan is extremely angry, he has returned to Kunming from Shanghai through Vietnam not long ago, and received a warm welcome from the patriotic soldiers, the heroes of the national protector Tang Jiyao and Lu Rongting, and issued a declaration of rebellion, calling on us members of Congress to go south and re-establish a provisional government with him. What do the brothers think? This is for the sake of the Republic and the Republic of China, and I believe that you virtuous people will not refuse. ”
"Sun Monkey is unreliable! There is a danger of becoming a vase. The question was immediately raised.
A person next to him sneered: "Vase? You are also too exalted of our people, from Emperor Hongxian Yuan Shikai to Li Yuanhong, who doesn't use us as a urinal, take it out if you can use it, and throw it aside if you don't need it, even if you go south to Kunming to give his grandson monkey as a decoration, at least there is all the food, accommodation and carriage and horse expenses, which is much better than staying in Beijing to support the Beiyang Army. ”
This is reasonable, for the sake of the country, the old man went to Yunnan to see if his grandson monkey was worthy of assistance. Also taste what it's like to be a girl in Tiannan, hehe. ”
"What Sun Monkey, it's Mr. Nakayama!"
"Yes, it's Mr. Nakayama!"
In less than half a month, the number of members of the National Assembly who arrived in Kunming had reached about 150. Outline of the Organization of the Military Government of the Republic of China", which stipulates that the Republic of China will organize the military government of the Republic of China in order to suppress the rebellion and restore the "Provisional Constitution". In order to meet the needs of the war to protect the law and fight the rebellion, the military government did not adopt the cabinet system stipulated in the "Provisional Treaty Law" but adopted the plan of the generalissimo system of integrating the party, the government, and the military power as proposed in the "Revolutionary Strategy" of the Chinese Revolutionary Party.
When such blatant news came to the whole country, Tang Shaoyi and Lu Rongting, who were elected as marshals, were also angry and asked: "Since it is the restoration of the provisional covenant, why not follow the cabinet system stipulated in the covenant, Mr. Zhongshan is afraid that he has violated the provisional covenant by doing so, what is the difference between him and Yuan Shikai?" ”
Sun Monkey said: "Do extraordinary things in extraordinary times. Zhongshan is the embodiment of the revolution, and Yuan is the restoration of the imperial system. Everything is for the sake of the revolution, and it is hoped that the general will put the revolution first. ”
Lu Rongting sent a telegram and asked: "Mr. Zhongshan asked Rongting to be the marshal, but at the same time instructed Chen Jiongming to attack Guangxi, what is the reason?" ”
Chen Jiongming gathered the remnants of the army and moved to Guangxi, and the dismal operation really gave Lu Rongting a headache, after Sun Monkey learned about this, he didn't stop it, after all, Chen Jiongming didn't attach himself to Chang Zhenbang in Guangzhou's anti-water matter, which gave him a little hope to say Chen Jiongming back, so he didn't publicly break and condemn it, as for Yungui's side, he held down the matter to death, lest others know that the internal strife in the southwest gave the Beiyang government a chance to intervene. So Lu Rongting didn't know that Chen Jiongming was now fighting the country by himself, so he sent a message to condemn Sun Monkey.
Sun Monkey hurriedly sent a telegram to Chen Jiongming in Longzhou, saying: "Jiongming, for the sake of the revolution, for the sake of Mr., I hope you will hand over the Guangxi jurisdiction to Marshal Lu Rongting and obey the marshal's full command. ”
The telegram was sent, Chen Jiongming was taken aback, and couldn't help laughing wildly, as an answer to Sun Monkey's message, Chen Jiongming quickly sent troops to Yulin to attack Wuzhou, Lu Rongting was furious, and immediately divided his troops from Guilin and Liuzhou, all the way south to Baise to attack Longzhou, and all the way south to relieve the siege of Wuzhou. After Chen Jiongming heard the news, he plundered a large amount of property, quickly retreated to Longzhou, and formed an alliance with Long Yuguang in Nanning, and both sent troops to beat Lu Rongting's Ma Ji Department under the nose of Baise Yungui.
Such an answer is tantamount to slapping Sun Monkey twice in broad daylight, Sun Monkey was furious, and ordered Tang Jiyao and Lu Rongting to jointly send troops to kill them, Lu Rongting naturally sent troops for Guangxi, but Tang Jiyao divided his troops from Guizhou in Yunnan and went north to Sichuan, trying to regain control of Sichuan, which was divided after Cai Yi's death.
After Chang Zhenbang returned to Guangzhou from Jiangsu, he immediately arranged heavy troops, let Hu Zhong take the Jiangxi Fourth Division into Qinlian, and at the same time sent someone to contact Chen Jiongming, telling him that he could return to Guangdong when he couldn't hold on, and Chang Zhenbang would always be his friend. After Chen Jiongming received the news, he was very grateful and agreed, but according to the description of the envoy's return, it seems that he is planning to hold on. Chang Zhenbang couldn't help but feel a little regretful, and said: "What a man, it's a pity that it's too ideal."
Tang Baichuan said: "The seventh brother is not another Chen Jiongming, but the ideal road is too peaceful, some are steep, some can reach the end as long as they walk, and some may still not see the direction after being bruised, no matter which kind of ideal person is respected." ”
Chang Zhenbang said: "It's a pity that the ideal is beautiful, the reality is cruel, Chen Jiongming is a talent, if he can collect me, it is better than a provincial elite soldier." ”
Tang Baichuan said with a smile: "Does the seventh brother like hunting?" ”
Chang Zhenbang shook his head and said, "Third brother, don't sell it, I can't afford to play such a thing as hunting." If you have anything to say, the third brother would just say it directly. ”
Tang Baichuan smiled faintly and said: "The best tool in hunting is an eagle, but to tame a good eagle, it is not such an easy thing, you need to boil the eagle!" ”
Chang Zhenbang said: "Boil the eagle? ”
Tang Baichuan smiled and nodded, "Boil the eagle." It is a key step in domesticating the wild eagle to make it the right-hand man of hunting, first to feed the eagle good food, so that it can grow fat and strong as soon as possible, but at this time the eagle fat is a kind of weak fat, and it must be made into a muscle to have strength. After the eagle is weakened, the falcon will officially begin, first of all, the eagle should be fattened, not only not to eat, but also to give it stomach lavage. After washing the stomach, bathe the eagle in hot water to make it sweat. At night, put the eagle on a thick rope dedicated to falconry, the eagle is unstable, and there are people below who constantly beat the rope with a stick, and the rope keeps shaking, so that the eagle can not sleep, which is called "boiling the eagle". Just like the adults let Chen Jiongming go to Guangxi, even if he captured more state capitals and lost them sooner or later under the watchful eyes of Long Jiguang, Lu Rongting and Tang Jiyao, he also exercised his military organization and command skills. With Chen Jiongming's temper if he is unsuccessful, he will become a benevolent, and he will not defect to the adult as a last resort, which just makes Lu Rongting's gang toss him. ”
Chang Zhenbang said: "In this way, Chen Jiongming suffered this crime, and it is by no means without any benefit to Zhenbang, I am afraid that Chen Jiongming will be tossed miserably by this gang and become a waste of frightened birds." ”
Tang Baichuan continued: "When the eagle is extremely tired, it will fall to the ground, at this time, rinse the eagle's head with clean water, and then let the eagle drink tea or salt water. In this way, the eagle will lose weight in a few days, and some eagles will be so hungry that they will only have skin and bones, and they will not have any energy at all. At this time, it began to be domesticated, with a special eye mask on the head of the eagle, so that it would not see anything, and specially fed it some meat, so that it could eliminate the fear and hostility of people. As long as the adults intervene at the right opportunity and pull Chen Jiongming back, I believe that his fear and hostility towards the seventh brother will disappear, and then he will be able to live and be nurtured, and in time, Chen Jiongming will be the eagle of the seventh brother's deer in the Central Plains. ”
Chang Zhenbang thought for a moment and said: "It's a good thing that Chen Jiongming is back, but Guangxi is missing Chen Jiongming, I'm afraid that the two brothers Long Jiguang can't contain Lu Rongting, Lu Rongting is not a good thing for Guangdong Branch to become bigger." ”
Tang Baichuan smiled slightly and said: "The seventh brother is too careful, even if Lu Rongting occupies Guangxi again, even if he wants to find trouble with the seventh brother, he will never dare to make a move with the seventh brother, Guangxi's surrounding Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangdong provinces are not stronger than him, only Hunan is a soft persimmon that he pinched, and he can only enter Hunan and make up for Guangxi's deficit by plundering Hunan's assets." ”
"Hunan?" Chang Zhenbang couldn't help but say with a light in his eyes: "Third brother, do you think it's okay for us to take the opportunity to send troops to Hunan?" As long as you take Hunan, you will be connected to Hubei, and when the time comes, you will ......"
Tang Baichuan shook his head and said: "The seventh brother must not be like this, Hunan is weak, but there are strong enemies all around, Tang Jiyao, Lu Rongting, Wang Zhanyuan are all eyeing each other, and now the Hunan overseer is Duan Qirui's people, let's occupy it, I am afraid that there are too many enemies to gain more than it loses, and the army in my lord's hands now is Jiangxi as the main force to assist a small number of Guangdong troops, once the surrounding evil, I am afraid, the worry of the seventh brother is not in Anhui and Yunnan but within the Xiao Wall!" ”
Chang Zhenbang nodded, but said very regretfully: "It's a pity that the great opportunity was missed in vain!" ”
Tang Baichuan said: "Jiangxi is the base camp of the seventh brother and cannot afford to lose, in the past two years, the southern and northern wars, gathering less and leaving more, the seventh brother is also time to find an opportunity to go to Jiangxi to inspect all over the country, and when Chen Jiongming comes, let him and Long Shichu be in charge of the Guangdong military, as for where in Fujian, you can also let Wang Xifeng recruit troops on the spot, he is a town guard envoy, and the division-level establishment is also required." ”
Chang Zhenbang said: "It's okay, while these people are eating dogs, let's just take a good rest, but I don't know what the third brother has planned?" ”
Tang Baichuan thought for a while and said: "It's okay to go to the Guangzhou Military Academy to teach, take classes, and accompany Liu San to the mountains and rivers, we have also gathered less and separated more in the past two years, it's time to compensate her." ”
Chang Zhenbang said with a smile: "Third brother is so interested, I'm afraid that Uncle Feng's side won't let us be too comfortable, after all, Duan Qirui is the prime minister, and he is eyeing the group of people in the southwest, I'm afraid that the battle for the new government will start again." ”
Tang Baichuan smiled and said, "Didn't the seventh brother see this when he defected to Feng Guozhang in the first place? The national cabinet system, the position of the president is fundamentally an honorary position, and it is most suitable for people like Li Bodhisattva to be elected, but it is a pity that Duan Qirui was stubborn and used himself, and overturned this Bodhisattva who he should have served carefully, and took over the evil god Feng Guozhang, who is this Feng Guozhang? In terms of qualifications, he is not worse than him Duan Qirui in Beiyang, and the wheel age is also the big brother, and there are many younger brothers who are overseers under the wheel, and now the Jiangsu and Zhejiang consortiums and the Guangdong business group are all in his hands, and the president with this honorary title makes him majestic, and Premier Duan is afraid that it is easy to ask God to send God, and he will have to suffer some hardships. ”
Chang Zhenbang said with a smile: "As soon as Sun Monkey makes a fuss, the above two masters will really do it, after all, Uncle Feng regards the southwestern provinces as brothers who ran away from home in anger and hopes that the family will sit down and talk in harmony, Duan Qirui regards the southwestern warlords as outsiders who covet family property, and insists on breaking the doglegs of these people, and the new palace dispute is inevitable." ”
Tang Baichuan said with a smile: "Duan Qirui appears everywhere as the heir of Emperor Hongxian, and these people in the southwest are no different from Yuan Shikai in his eyes, they are all rebellious and want to crusade. Besides, Emperor Hongxian's small station training is only 8,000, and there are more than 10,000 people who have been promoted to the Tao, and what merit does Duan Qirui have compared to Emperor Hongxian? For example, today you can only take a few provinces in the southwest to share the spoils with Beiyang. This Feng Guozhang is famous for opposing Emperor Hong Xian, so he has been secretly colluding with the southwestern provinces, which is his capital and his burden, and what position does he stand in to support Duan Qirui's crusade against the southwest? He is now the president, but he is just a president of a crippled China, as long as China is united, his president will have more gold, and even with the support of the southwest and southeast, he changed the cabinet system to the presidential system and completely crushed Duan Qirui, so he advocates peaceful reunification, hello and I am good, but in this way, the Beiyang side is not convinced. ”
Chang Zhenbang listened to it, and said with some regret: "It's still the third brother who has seen it thoroughly, we managed to make half of Fujian in the last time the battle between the government and the courtyard, and this time the battle between the government and the courtyard is more exciting, but unfortunately I can only watch the play, and I am really fucking lonely as snow." ”
Tang Baichuan smiled and said: "Fujian's military equipment is weak after the reduction, it is by no means comparable to other provinces, this meal has to be eaten one bite at a time, chew it slowly, if you gobble up one and spit it out carelessly, it will be worth the loss." ”
"Third brother, Zhenbang still understands this truth." Chang Zhenbang sighed: "I don't know when I will be able to swallow thousands of miles like a tiger." ”
Tang Baichuan said: "The scenery of Fujian is good, the seventh brother may wish to drink kung fu tea when he is free, and appreciate the tea picking girl, I heard that these women have been picking tea since childhood, and they are extremely fragrant all over their bodies, and they were bought as concubines by local wealthy businessmen with a little appearance, which is said to be a special taste." ”
"Hehe, the third brother laughed, I am also a person with a wife and a concubine, it seems that it shouldn't be so ridiculous." Chang Zhenbang said with a smile: "But the third brother dares to be interested? Do you want to go to Fujian to pick flowers? ”
Tang Baichuan said: "Hehe, the seventh brother said that he laughed, I will take Liu San to see the tea trees all over the mountain, and by the way, visit our old friend Li Yuanhong, I heard that he is now planning to set up an industry in Fuzhou, this is a good thing, how to praise it, Liu San has long wanted to meet this heavenly person, and it just opened Liu San's eyes." ”
"Heavenly people?" Chang Zhenbang couldn't help but smile when he heard this: "Is the third brother planning to pay attention to this person?" ”
Tang Baichuan smiled but did not speak, and Chang Zhenbang suddenly realized.
