Chapter 407: Duan Qirui picks peaches

"Quick, brothers, work hard!"

Sun Liechen roared angrily, the horsewhip whipped the horse under him fiercely, the horse roared, the horse's hooves rose again, and there was a sonorous sound when it landed on the bluestone slab on the rainy night, and the cavalry troops behind Sun Liechen also quickly raised their horses and whipped, rushing to the front, and the sound fell in the night rain, and gradually dissipated in the hazy place of the water and sky in the distance.

"Report~! There are still thirty miles in the city of Beijing. ”

Sun Liechen stretched out his hand and shook off the endless rain on his face, and shouted again: "Brothers, whoever is the first to enter Beijing City, Lao Tzu will reward him with a hundred oceans!" After saying that, he took the lead and left, and the cavalry behind him heard the reward coming down, and immediately threw everything away and rushed forward like a chicken's blood.

The majestic Desheng Gate is half hidden and half appears like a ghost in the eyes of everyone, the defenders above the city tower saw such a murderous army appear in the reckless place of heaven and earth, and couldn't help but be surprised, and immediately pulled up the alarm, after the city guard heard the news, he quickly gathered the soldiers and went up to the city tower and set up the cannon.

Sun Liechen roared angrily: "I am Sun Liechen in the Northeast, on the order of Zhang Dashuai, rush to the aid of Cao Sanye, and open the city gate as soon as possible!" ”

The thick northeast tone spread to the city tower, the city guard officer heard that it was a dedication, and did not hesitate, immediately ordered to open the door, let the friendly army into the city, the heavy city gate just opened a gap, the northeast cavalry roared like a torrent rushed in.

"Where is General Cao Rui!"

"General Cao Rui has moved to the Great Presidential Palace!"

The officer defending the city wanted to ask a few questions, but was thrown into a puddle of water, and the rain kept falling, as if the sky was leaking, and there were no small traces, but signs of intensification.

"Straight to the Presidential Palace!"

Sun Liechen commanded hoarsely, the brisk horse's hooves stepped on the bluestone slab I don't know how many Jinghua Qingmeng were broken, this place is not as good as other places, it was the imperial capital a long time ago, except for the arrogant Eight-Nation Alliance, no army dared to spread wild here, many people simply got up from the bed, while looking at the soldiers outside, while using the past of Sijiu City to speculate on the outcome of this war, at this time the difference between the rich and the poor may be the difference between the good and bad refreshments.

There were more than a dozen unwilling heads hanging on the high pole outside the presidential palace, and the bright red blood slowly flowed down the pole, and before it landed, it was diluted into a large piece of pale red liquid by the rain, just like the Danqi in front of the emperor's palace.

"Who's making noise outside the door?"

Sun Liechen said: "Northeast Sun Liechen came to meet the president!" Don't go ahead and report it yet! ”

The guards quickly went in to report, Cao Rui heard that Sun Liechen had come, he was overjoyed, and brought Xu Shichang and Wang Huaiqing to the front of the house, now he didn't dare to let Xu Shichang leave the left and right easily, Sun Liechen saw Xu Shichang coming, and was busy paying respects, and said: "The subordinate Heilongjiang overseer Sun Liechen has seen the president!" ”

Xu Shichang was greatly moved when he saw him so sincere, and couldn't help but glance at Cao Rui, but Cao Rui snorted coldly and expressed dissatisfaction, thinking that he was also polite to Xu Shichang at the beginning, but in the end he was still a white-eyed wolf who couldn't be raised.

"Lord Sun has been driving all the way, please take a break inside!" Cao Ruiyue put forward the invitation on his behalf.

Sun Liechen said: "Cao Ye's kindness, my brother understands it, but there is still something to do, so I can only be disrespectful." ”

Cao Rui was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart that your Feng Department has been wandering in the northeast, how can there be something for you to do in this Sijiu City? What do you have to do? Just when he was puzzled, he saw that the cavalry behind Sun Liechen showed their fangs and surrounded them.

Xu Shichang was overjoyed when he saw this, Cao Rui was angry, but Wang Huaiqing was bitter.

Then he said puzzledly: "Brother Sun, what do you mean by this, Zhifeng has been allied, why are you here, can't you vote for the southeast?" ”

Sun Liechen smiled and said: "Cao Ye said that he was joking, I am friends with the handsome man for eight worships, brothers in life and death!" How could he betray the marshal! ”

"The Northeast wants to break the contract? You must know that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, and without the direct line, can the Feng family stay out of the matter? ”

Sun Liechen smiled and didn't answer, Xu Shichang smiled and wanted to go over to have a relationship with Sun Liechen, but found that those Northeast Army also treated him like a traitor.

"What's going on? Sun Liechen! ”

Sun Liechen didn't answer him, I don't know that the police force hiding there is a show of strength and full armament, the first person is the Beijing police boss Wu Bingxiang Wu Ye, he is as kind as ever, the two jade balls in his hands are spinning around, smiling and grinning, giving people a feeling that people and animals are not harmed, since the fall of Lao Duan, he has been low-key pretending to be a grandson, it is really rain in the sky for fear of leaking the house, and the wind on the ground is afraid of falling down the wall, why did he come to such a heavy rain today, this kid actually came, I'm afraid that a night owl will not come when he enters the house.

"Yo, President Xu, my subordinates invite you ~An~!" The strange long tone is like the tactful emphasis of the drama on the stage, which makes people feel as if they have entered the unreality of the play.

Xu Shichang glanced at him and said lightly: "The praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and that student of mine is really a powerful person!" ”

"Mr. complimented, Qirui is just in his prime!"

Without waiting for Wu Bingxiang to speak, a person in a police uniform behind him walked over without hindrance, and the light in front of the Grand Presidential Palace shone through the hazy water vapor on this person's face, and it was Duan Qirui himself.

Cao Rui was taken aback and said, "You ...... What are you doing here? ”

Duan Qirui smiled, but said with a long sigh: "I didn't care about your mess when I returned to my hometown, but your direct line and the southeast are also a little disagreeable, so I have to wipe your ass for you." ”

Sun Liechen said: "President, you are a smart person, you know what to do!" ”

Xu Shichang said: "The old man knows the current affairs here, but what are you going to do on Premier Jin's side?" ”

Duan Qirui said: "Jin Yunpeng is my old subordinate, I know who he is, so I don't worry about the president." ”

"Report, Jin Yunpeng and the thirteen members of the cabinet have all been taken, please show me!"

A cavalryman galloped off his horse and came to ask Sun Liechen for instructions.

"Very good, please also ask Sun Dujun to invite the entire Erwuzai to the Great Presidential Palace!"

Sun Liechen immediately followed Duan Qirui's order and asked the soldiers to bring Jin Yunpeng and others over.

After some operations, when the rain was about to stop in the early hours of the morning, President Xu Shichang and Prime Minister Jin Yunpeng jointly issued an announcement that the first two dismissal telegrams were all invalid, and that no matter whether the southeast or the direct subordinate were in place, they would not be rewarded and punished, and at the same time asked the two sides to shake hands and make peace, turning hostility into jade silk, and this Zhijiang war, with heavy casualties, seriously affected the prosperity and stability of Gyeonggi, and there is a way that all parties are guilty, and the crime is in me, Xu Shichang and Jin Yunpeng both took the blame and resigned, and implored the former cabinet premier Duan Qirui to go out of the mountain and clean up the mess.

Not long after the telegram was sent, before dawn, Duan Qirui announced the establishment of the provisional government of the Republic of China, and ruled by himself. Duan Qirui then announced the list of cabinet members: Tang Shaoyi as Minister of Foreign Affairs, Wu Guangxin as Minister of Army, Li Sihao as Minister of Finance, Ye Gongqiu as Minister of Communications, and Liang Hongzhi as Secretary General of the Provisional Government. As a boss politician, he knows that neither Cao Kun nor the southeast will listen to him, the commander of the light pole, but the flames of war have burned to the direct line, not only seriously threatening the interests of the capital of various countries, but also seriously threatening the lives of ministers and diplomats of various countries.

Sure enough, after the notes were sent to the ministers of various countries, the ministers of various countries first discussed in their own legations, and then they swarmed up and gathered in the legations of the British Empire in the hope that the British ministers would have that idea.

The British minister glanced at the people around him and said lightly: "Gentlemen, gentlemen, what is the matter with everyone gathered together now!" ”

The French minister glared at him fiercely, and said in his heart, old fellow, what are you pretending to be here, although he was dissatisfied with the British minister in every way, but he also knew that Europe had been a situation in which the British boss himself was running behind him for the past three or four hundred years, and it was estimated that this situation could not be changed in a short time, so he had to swallow his anger and said: "The warlord Chang Zhenbang from southern China and the warlord Wu Peifu from the north are fighting in the area of Baoding, Zhili, which seriously affects the commercial interests of various countries, and I also ask Your Excellency the minister to give the big guy an idea." ”

The British minister proudly glanced at the ministers of the surrounding countries, he was proud of the prestige of the British Empire from the bottom of his heart, and said: "Peace is God's most luxurious blessing, war is the devil's plaything, I think Chang and Wu Peifu should try their best to exercise restraint, stop fighting in the capital, and it is best for both sides to pull out the Zhili, only in this way can the last trace of China's dignity be preserved!" ”

"Your Excellency is wise, I second!"

The French minister glanced at him angrily, and said in his heart Who doesn't know that you England and Chang Zhenbang are wearing a pair of open crotch pants, but the degree of this eccentricity is inevitably a little bigger, quitting Zhili is no loss for Chang Zhenbang, but for Zhili it is a catastrophe, can he listen to you? You're going to put all the plates on the straight head, but the relationship between France and Chang Zhenbang is not bad, how can you not object?

Seeing that everyone was about to reply to Duan Qirui, Minister Dongying stood up and said: "After the two sides of Zhijiang retreat, Zhili will inevitably form a gap in public security. ”

Chang Zhenbang is the little brother of the British Empire, and Duan Qirui is Dongying's brother, and Dongying naturally stands up and speaks for Duan Qirui.

"This is also a solution, but as for what, let's write it in the note and let the Chinese discuss it themselves!" However, the British Empire meant that a stable and unified Chinese market was in the best interests of all countries. ”
