Chapter 325: Wang Yongan's Preparations Before Returning to China

At this time, Liu Yanyi had already served as the Shanghai Daotai, but no one was willing to serve the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so Liu Yanyi took the initiative to order the opening of the Shanghai City Gate and hand over Shanghi. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info on Hi everywhere was occupied by the rebels almost bloodlessly, but the Gangnam Manufacturing Bureau was in trouble.

Zhang Shiheng, the general office of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, is a native of Hefei, Anhui Province, and he is Li Hongzhang's cousin and Li Hongzhang's brother-in-law. Li Hongzhang's down-and-out people were all helped by the Zhang family, and even the marriage was handled by the Zhang family, so Li Hongzhang was grateful to the Zhang family, and many important positions under his hands were held by the Zhang family. At first, Zhang Shiheng was in charge of the Beiyang Machinery Bureau, but when the First Sino-Japanese War was defeated, someone told the imperial court that Zhang Shiheng colluded with the Japanese, and Zhang Zhidong found out that although Zhang Shiheng did not collude with the Japanese, he connived at his subordinates to steal and sell materials, and these ordnance materials were purchased by Japanese spies, so Zhang Shiheng was dismissed. After Li Hongzhang's death, Zhang Shiheng spent money to re-emerge and served as the general office of the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau.

Although Zhang Shiheng resolutely refused to surrender, Li Xianmo then commanded a large army to storm the manufacturing bureau, which was conquered a day later, and Zhang Shiheng led the army to flee into the British and French concessions to seek refuge. The rebels held high the white flag and marched towards the British and French concessions, demanding that the Yellow Dragon Banner of the Qing Dynasty not be allowed to be hoisted in the British and French concessions, and the foreign soldiers were also terrified, and after several hours of confrontation, the British and French Concessions ordered the removal of all Yellow Dragon Flags.

At this time, all parts of the south of the Yangtze River, except for Nanjing, which was still in the hands of the Qing court, were all occupied by the rebel army, and the Jiangnan Rebellion made Jiangbei tremble. Wang Yongan immediately sent a telegram to Wang Yongan, asking Jiangbei how to face the current situation and whether to send troops to Jiangnan to stop the revolution.

Wang Yongan thought for a moment and replied to the telegram: "And today the rise and fall of the next country is undecided, we must not mess with ourselves, keep the Jiangbei region, and never let the Jiangbei be chaotic." If the imperial court orders, then ask Governor Yuan Shikai before making plans, if Zhang Xun asks for help, ignore him. ”

Wang Yongtai knew in his heart, he knew that Wang Yongan and Zhang Xun had a grudge, but Zhang Xun sued for peace by marrying his daughter, but he didn't expect the fourth brother to fall into the well at this time, and he didn't know why he looked down on Zhang Xun so much. However, asking Yuan Shikai about everything made Wang Yongtai have a plan.

Yuan Shikai is now delayed from the mountain to command, the reason is the attitude of the Jiangbei Army, after all, the ability of the Jiangbei 100,000 army is not small, Wang Yongtai is a Qing Dynasty general, Wang Yongan is famous all over the world, if the two brothers oppose the Qing Dynasty, they can directly take the Jinpu Railway from Jiangbei to Beijing.

When Yuan Shikai received Wang Yongtai's telegram, he was immediately relieved, on the one hand, the Jiangbei Army wanted to keep its own territory, and on the other hand, he also saw that the Jiangbei Army actually had a 100,000 army on the surface, but there was no unity of the Beiyang Army inside.

So, Yuan Shikai sent a telegram of condolences to Wang Yongtai, telling him that now the thieves all respect Wuhan, Wuhan is not broken, and the remaining thieves are not destroyed, and look at the Wuhan war situation, and then slowly and leisurely took the train to leave Henan Province and go to the front line in Wuhan.

Now, although Wang Yongtai's army is numerous, many of them are new recruits, and the anti-Qing ideology is everywhere in the world, so he does not dare to move at will. Fortunately, Wang Yongan's previous idea of loyalty to the commander is still there, and the Jiangbei Army has Wang Yongtai as the commander, and there is no movement for the time being.

Wang Yongtai sent another telegram, asking Wang Yongan to return to China immediately to clean up the situation.

Wang Yongan thought twice and waited faithfully until the Madero government sent him a telegram, in which Madero demanded that the San Lucaste government not participate in any domestic forces and not have relations with any foreign forces. Wang Yongan said that the San Lucaste District will abide by it one by one and will never affect the national interests and national interests of the Federal Republic of Mexico.

Wang's fears about Madero were somewhat unwarranted, as Madero was now in trouble, with a large number of local warlords disobeying the central government, and Madero was now desperate to take back power from the local warlords and disband the army rather than the San Lucaste district, which was subordinate to the central government.

But it is easy to form an army, but it is difficult to disband, after all, these people are men who have seen blood and fought wars, and if you want to disband the army, you can take out severance pay. But Madero has no money in his hands, and the only ones who have money are the big domestic capitalists, big family companies and American corporate consortia. Of course, these big capitalists did not refuse to cooperate with Madero because he overthrew the Díaz, who had always supported them, the capitalists are fickle, they do not have any political position at all, as long as it is someone who can help them, even if it is a devil, the capitalists are willing to cooperate, let alone Madero.

The capitalists offered Madero the condition that they could lend enough money to the Madero government, but asked Madero to guarantee the interests of the capitalists, the interests of the consortium, and to keep the existing laws unchanged.

Madero rebelled when he saw that Díaz supported the big capitalists and oppressed the peasants, but the problem now is that if he did not support the capitalists, he would not have the money to pay the severance pay to the many small warlords. And if the petty warlords do not disband their army, they will make Madero the president of the Federative Republic of Mexico, like Díaz, who can only govern Mexico City.

It was as if it were an endless loop, and Madero had no choice but to negotiate with the big capitalists, hoping that they would treat the workers well and stop fighting with the peasants for land. However, Madero's negotiations with the capitalists were leaked by those around him, and his political opponents took the opportunity to announce to the citizens and militias that Madero wanted to abandon them, and that Madero was now in the arms of the big capitalists, and that he had a Díaz......

As a result, the turmoil of the fallen horse began to be staged in the capital Mexico City.

Shen Aisun, an old and cunning thing, felt that a civil war was about to break out in Mexico again, so he left Mexico City without permission and ran to live in San Lucas. Wang Yongan said helplessly: "Chargé d'affaires Shen, you are ......"

"People are old and useless, I am ready to resign and retire in San Lucas, I don't know if Commander Wang welcomes you?" Shen Aisun said.

Wang Yongan couldn't cry or laugh, this guy was only in his forties and less than fifty, and he actually said that he was old, obviously he didn't want to stay in war-torn Mexico City, and said that he was useless, it was just a joke! Wang Yongan felt that Shen Aisun couldn't waste his talents so much, so he asked him to go to Puerto Vallarta to establish the consulate of the Qing Kingdom in Mexico, even if he didn't live in Mexico City, he had to live in mainland Mexico, what kind of thing was it to go to San Lucas.

Shen Aisun had no choice but to run to Puerto Vallarta and bought a house with the Qinglong flag of the Great Qing Kingdom, indicating that this was the Consulate of the Great Qing Kingdom in Mexico. Fortunately, the entire Puerto Vallarta is under the control of the San Lucas armed police force, and no one has stopped it, and no one has stopped Shen Aisun's fear of death.

But what Shen Aisun didn't expect was that Madero very simply ordered Huerta to conduct a full search this time, arrest the rumor-mongers, and directly use violent means to kill political opponents. This time the style of operation was very different from that of Madero, but his brother Gustavo supported the operation, and Madero appointed Huerta as chief of staff of the National Defence Forces of the Federative Republic of Mexico, which was the first political turmoil in which Madero subsided.

However, on the surface, all opposition voices have disappeared, but in fact, the opposition has been blown from the central government to all localities, and the local opposition has become even louder. And this time the purchase of Huerta made Huerta's ambitions bigger and bigger, and more and more inflated.

What is even more unexpected is that in order to show his support to the big capitalists, Madero actually ordered the appointment of President Dias's nephew, Felix Dias, as the chief of the Mexico City police. Everyone thought that Madero was crazy, but he really won the support of the big capitalists, the Federal Republic of Mexico returned to normal in a short time, the factories finally reopened, and the capital, Mexico City, seemed to be back to what it was a year ago.

Wang Yongan concluded to his generals that everything Madero is doing now is buying a curse for the future, and maybe it won't be long before Madero dies in the pit he dug. Of course, Wang Yongan has not given up military training for the citizens of San Lucas, and he plans to temporarily lower the alert level after this phase of training.

At the end of November, after the first phase of the San Lucas armed police force was completed, Wang Yongan invited American and Mexican journalists and South American journalists to visit the training and military parade in San Lucaste District.

The military parade was very solemn, the San Lucas armed police force has a total of 15 brigades, numbered 1st to 7th infantry brigades, 8th cavalry brigade, 9th artillery brigade, 10th engineer brigade, 11th garrison brigade, 12th armed militia brigade, 13th women's brigade, 14th coast guard brigade, 15th junior combat brigade, Wang Yongan asked each unit to select 203 soldiers, 10 people in a column, 20 people in a column, 1 flag bearer, 2 officers to lead the team, respectively passing in front of the rostrum.

In fact, the preparation time was only a short week, and within this week, the invited newspaper reporters settled in the town of San Lucas — well, now it can't be called a town, but the city of San Lucas. Everyone was first attracted by the beautiful scenery of San Lucas, and then they noticed something that everyone was a little curious about - the people of San Lucas had their braids cut and no pig's tail on their heads!

This is a rare thing, because Chinese people wear braids everywhere they go, and they would rather die than cut their hair, so they are ridiculed and insulted, but I didn't expect the men of St. Lucas to have no braids, and after careful inquiry, reporters from various countries also know a funny thing, the law of St. Lucas clearly stipulates that men's hair must not be longer than the earlobes, and women's hair must not be shorter than the shoulders, otherwise the man will be fined and sentenced to twenty lashes, and the woman's violation of the law will be serious enough to be directly imprisoned in the women's prison, until the hair is over the shoulders can be released.

A place that has a diametrically opposed atmosphere to the Great Qing Kingdom, many people have expressed it after visiting.
