Sure enough, something happened in Nanjing, and Kuang Haishan's regiment fought with the Jiangxi People's Army, killing and wounding more than 20 officers and soldiers in the first regiment, and the Jiangxi People's Army was killed by them by 1,200. The military police of the War Department surrounded both sides of the firefight, arrested thousands of people, and filled the prisons.

This matter is enough to kill him, and what makes him even more troublesome is that the Nanjing Provisional Political Axe is frequently tricked. Before Kuang Haishan went to Nanjing, Chai Dongliang once sent a secret telegram to Sun Wen, stating all kinds of shortcomings in Nanjing, the capital of Dingdu, and it is estimated that this master was thrown into the paper basket without even looking at it, and so far Chai Dudu has not received a callback.

In order to forcibly approve the plan to establish the capital of Nanjing, Huang Xing went so far as to order the gendarmes to surround all the delegates, and he went to the scene in person, regardless of his identity, warning that all members of the League would be arrested if they did not vote for Nanjing.

Chai Dongliang was in a cold sweat, fortunately, Kuang Haishan didn't participate in any club, otherwise, with his surname of "axis" to admit death, he would not have been thrown into prison by Huang Xing? If Kwong Haishan is arrested, what should he do? Abandoning it is definitely not Chai Dongliang's surname, but it is indeed difficult to meet Sun Wen and Huang Xing's sword soldiers.

This is not what worries Chai Dongliang the most, Kuang Haishan's original copy of the "Draft Outline of the Provisional Political Axe Organization of the Republic of China" is the real lethal weapon.

After Chai Dongliang finished reading it, he had nothing to say except a sigh. With Chai Dada, who has only read a few officialdom novels, he can feel that this thing is extremely naïve. First of all, the organizational structure is chaotic, it is neither a parliamentary system nor a presidential system, and it is true that there is a big president in name, and it is also a fake way to give the president the power to take charge of government affairs, promulgate laws, and appoint and dismiss civil and military officials on behalf of the provisional political axe. However, he added the phrase "Orders issued by the President must be countersigned by the Prime Minister and ministers of various ministries before they can take effect." Chai Dongliang wanted to laugh after reading this, if the president wants to remove the prime minister and ministers in accordance with the previous regulations, he must get the prime minister and ministers to sign and agree, this is simply an international joke.

The funny thing about this provision is that it is similar to the later League of Nations stipulating that all laws and regulations must be unanimously agreed by all countries, and the League of Nations must also get the permission of the League of Nations to condemn China's aggression.

Chai Dongliang knew in his heart that this must be to restrict Yuan Shikai's temporary additions, needless to say, Sun Wen and Huang Xing would also use coercive means to force the provisional Senate to agree, after all, the representatives of the League accounted for the majority of the provinces. Moreover, Sun Wen and Huang Xing have almost an unshakable status like gods among the members of the Alliance.

In the process of overthrowing the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Sun Wen and Huang Xing played a leading role that others could not match, and it was only under their inspiration that the vast majority of enthusiastic young people rose up and overthrew the imperial system that lasted for more than 2,000 years. However, once the idealist becomes a politician, he turns from cute to pitiful. It's not impossible to play tricks, but it depends on who you're playing with. With the fourth-rate political skills of Sun and Huang, to deal with a hero like Yuan Shikai, who has been in the officialdom for decades and has had several ups and downs, it is as clumsy as a story made up by a child to coax an old fox. Not to mention fooling Yuan Shikai and Yang Shiqi, who have become refined old fritters, even two-knife politicians like Chai Dongliang can see through it at a glance.

These things not only gave Chai Dongliang a headache, but also made him feel heartache, when the idol walked off the altar, all he left was a decaying back.

Chai Dongliang remembered Kuang Haishan's words for no reason, the hero really should die under the last bullet on the battlefield, instead of climbing to the top of the tree and showing his red butt for people to see.

Heartache is heartache, things still have to be dealt with, Chai Dongliang is on the ship of Nanjing's temporary political axe after all, and the outside world generally thinks that he is Sun Wen's envoy and a hardcore member of the alliance. If this ship capsizes, it will not be of the slightest benefit to Chai Dongliang, and at that time, he will be exposed to Beiyang and become Yuan Shikai's target without the shield of Nanjing's temporary political axe in front of him.

Whenever he thinks of Yang Shiqi's face, Chai Dongliang shudders, that's a poisonous snake! And Yuan Shikai is a person who can control this poisonous snake at will, how can he be underestimated with his strong ability and clever means?

Strength, or strength! No matter how well-trained the 4,000 New Army is, it is impossible to defeat the Beiyang Army built by Yuan Shikai's more than 100,000 people.

Chai Dongliang is still a little strange, Kuang Haishan is a calm person, and the soldiers in the regiment are not arrogant generals who like to make trouble, how could they fight with the Jiangxi People's Army for no reason?

"Governor, tonight's ball, the list of invited guests has been drawn up, please take a look!" Wu Jintang smiled and handed over a list.

Chai Dongliang squeezed out a smile and said, "Cousin Jin, you should take care of these things, I won't participate!" I'm about to leave for Nanjing. ”

Wu Jintang was surprised: "The governor is going to leave just after he comes back?" The elders of the Wuhu business community are grateful for the kindness of the governor, this ball is specially for you to catch the wind, and the governor is not good to cold everyone's hearts. ”

Chai Dongliang smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from cousin Jin, my people have an accident in Nanjing, if I don't go over again, it will not be a ball, but a spoonful of stew!" ”

Dividing line

Yuan Shikai of the Gongbao Mansion in Yanjing Shitong Hutong was bareheaded, holding a telegram translation in his hand, and smiled back and forth: "Xingcheng, Shenzi, look at this, Sun Wenzheng is setting up a trap and waiting for me to drill!" ”

Yang Du also laughed: "Who is hiding such a little trick?" ”

Yang Shiqi smiled coldly: "I'm afraid it's more than that, right?" There's a lot of advice here! ”

Yuan Shikai and Yang Du held back their smiles at the same time, they had full trust in Yang Shiqi's political sense. Yuan Shikai hurriedly said: "Xingcheng, could it be that there is still a mystery in it?" ”

Yang Shiqi shook the hem of his robe, and said with a straight face: "Have you ever forgotten that you added a sentence to the abdication edict?" ”

Yuan Shikai nodded and said, "Remember, isn't this what you polished?" ”

Yang Shiqi said with a solemn face: "The other party came to such a hand, and it was for that one!" ”

There is a sentence in the abdication edict: Yuan Shikai has full authority to organize the provisional political axe and negotiate with the people's army to unify the method. And this is an extremely powerful move, which shows that Yuan Shikai's power does not come from the election of the Senate or Sun Wen's humility, but from the authorization of the Qing family. If the revolutionary party investigates it, Yuan Shikai can directly use a sentence that the Qing family has abdicated and cannot be changed, unless it is to let the Qing family restore again to prevaricate the past.

This move is not powerful, Yuan Shikai did not admit the feelings of the revolutionary party at all, so the revolutionary party did not want to restrain him. Yuan Shikai can kick the Senate controlled by the revolutionary party at any time.

It was precisely because of this concern that Sun Wencai concocted three agreements: that the capital should be Nanjing, that the president would take office in Nanjing, and that the new provisional president would abide by all the laws and regulations that had been set.

Sun Wen still felt that it was not enough to be safe, so he made the "Draft Outline of the Provisional Political Axe Organization of the Republic of China", intending to strengthen the power of the cabinet and the Congress again and firmly control Yuan Shikai. To put it bluntly, Sun Wen is just a move.

Chai Dongliang, who was far away in Anqing, didn't know the inside story, so he naturally felt that Sun Wen's set was nondescript, and it didn't seem to be above board enough, Sun Wen had no power restrictions when he was president, and when it was Yuan Shikai's turn, he did everything possible to restrain him, and his methods were inevitably clumsy.

It's just that Sun Wen's suffering, how can the world know? Eight major organizations, including the Minshe, Minlibao, and the National Association, jointly issued a statement demanding the cancellation of this proposal and stated: The capital of Yanjing is the key to foreign and domestic affairs, and if the north is abandoned and the south is abandoned, the imperial party will surely revivenation, and the strong enemy will also take the opportunity to invade.

Zhang Taiyan, the spiritual leader of the Liberation Society and a veteran of the revolution, directly scolded Sun Wen in the newspaper, saying that he deliberately provoked the incident.

For the first time, public opinion in the whole country unanimously directed Yuan Shikai to the side, and under the instigation of public opinion, the governors and gentry representatives of all provinces called the provisional political axe to express their objections to the fixed capital of Nanjing. Even most of the generals of the Southern Revolutionary Army did not agree to make the capital Nanjing.

Sun Wen, who has always been invincible in the propaganda war, suffered the loss of public opinion for the first time, and Yuan Shikai was naturally quite proud. It's just that I didn't expect that if I did the first year of junior high school, Sun Wen would do fifteen, and I pretended to be a god on the abdication edict, and Sun Wen played tricks on the Senate election.

Yuan Shikai frowned and said: "This Sun Wen seems to be straightforward, but I didn't expect that there is a belly of flowery intestines!" Xingcheng, you give me an idea for Lao Yuan, how to deal with him! ”

Yang Shiqi sneered: "Didn't he send someone to Yanjing to promote driving?" Let's greet each other with courtesy! The rest of the things, the palace guard doesn't have to take care of it, I deserve it! ”

In order to promote the established policy of establishing the capital of Nanjing and letting Yuan Shikai go to Nanjing to take over as the provisional president, Sun Wen sent a special delegation to Yanjing to welcome Yuan Shikai south. The mission was headed by Cai Yuanpei, director of education, and included a large number of important members, including Wei Chengu, vice minister of foreign affairs, and Song Jiaoren, director of the Legislative Affairs Bureau. More than a dozen ministers and deputy ministers of the temporary political axe, the lineup is not strong, and the etiquette is not grand. Accompanied by Yuan Shikai's representative Tang Shaoyi, the special delegation set off from Shanghai for Yanjing.

Yang Shiqi was reluctant to say it thoroughly, and Yuan Shikai would never ask again, so he smiled and said: "Xingcheng is naturally doing things, it is naturally all right, let it go, if it really comes out and makes a mistake, the big thunder will also be topped by me Yuan with his head!" ”

Yang Du saw the expressions of the two of them, and couldn't help but feel jealous in his heart. Secretly regretted, why didn't this Yang Shiqi die in Anqing!

Yuan Shikai touched the bald head that didn't leave his hands and said, "This special mission has already arrived in Tianjin, right?" Who's going to greet it? ”

Yang Shiqi said with a smile: "The eldest prince is the best candidate!" ”

Yuan Shikai frowned and said, "Keding? He can't make it, right? ”

His worries are not unfounded, Yuan Keding is the eldest son, studied in Germany at an early age, proficient in German and English, and is not considered to be a master without learning, he was originally the best candidate to succeed Yuan Shikai, but he once fell off the horse and had a disability in one leg, which made Yuan Shikai feel very regretful.

Yang Shiqi shook his head and said: "The eldest prince has a very good relationship with that Wang Zhaoming, and it is most appropriate for the eldest prince to be famous." ”

Yuan Shikai slapped the table and said, "That's him, I'll leave this matter to Xingcheng, I won't just ask!" ”

The corner of Yang Shiqi's mouth picked out a sneer: "Look at how I manipulate those barbarians from the south!" ”
