Yuan Shikai, who was far away in Wuhan, was very frightened when he learned the news. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

The ship is not without a long distance

After the death of the Empress Dowager Cixi of Yuan Shikai, Zaifeng became the regent of the prison country, which was tantamount to a catastrophe for himself.

On December 18, the Qing court issued an edict dismissing Yuan Shikai from his post and ordering him to return to his hometown to recuperate.

The reason why Yuan Shikai has such a premonition is naturally clear in his heart.

He knew that what he had done, the conservative faction in the court had been extremely dissatisfied with him from beginning to end.

Because of his ambitions, he attracted the jealousy of the Manchu princes and nobles of the Qing court. They have been doing everything they can to weaken their power and concentrate state power in their own hands.

After the death of the Guangxu Emperor Cixi and the Empress Dowager one after another, these Manchu officials of the Qing court, because they coveted the military power in the hands of Yuan Shikai, got rid of Yuan Shikai became the common idea of these Manchu officials.

The regent of the prison country, Zaifeng, hated Yuan Shikai even more. He has always believed that what happened to Emperor Guangxu was caused by Yuan Shikai.

Therefore, when Zaifeng was in power, the first thing he did was to find a way to kill Yuan Shikai to prevent future troubles.

However, Zaifeng's idea of killing Yuan Shikai was opposed by Prince Qing, Yixuan, Minister of Military Aircraft, Shixu and Zhang Zhidong, and others.

They believed that if Yuan Shikai was killed directly, it might prompt the Beiyang New Army to go to extremes, force it to rebel, and cause trouble to Xiao Sui.

In addition, Yuan Shikai had very good relations with Britain and the United States and other countries, and if Yuan Shikai was to be killed, the Western powers would also intervene.

Therefore, Zaifeng reluctantly adopted the opinions of several ministers of military aircraft, and ordered Yuan Shikai to return to his hometown to recuperate on the grounds that he was now suffering from foot disease, struggling to walk, and was unable to perform his duties.

After Yuan Shikai received the edict from the imperial court, he learned from the mouths of his cronies in the court that Zaifeng and others had reprimanded him, and he was shocked into a cold sweat. Immediately packed his bags and fled back to Henan.

After Yuan Shikai fled back to Henan, he sent people to Zhangde to buy a villa from He Bingying, a former Tianjin salt merchant, rebuilt and expanded, named Yangshouyuan, and prepared to live there.

Yuan Shikai's move to stay away from the political arena and retire with peace of mind is essentially waiting for the opportunity.

The longevity garden he purchased is located in the area through which the Jinghan Railway passes, and the transportation is extremely convenient.

Yuan Shikai also set up a telegraph room in the garden to keep in touch with his cronies and followers in the court, spy on the opportunity, and prepare for a comeback.

After the Qing court relieved Yuan Shikai of military power, Tie Liang took control of the Beiyang New Army in the court.

Shang Shu Tieliang of the War Department saw that his power was getting bigger and bigger, and he gradually began to swell.

So Tie Liang persuaded the Empress Dowager Longyu of Emperor Guangxu to train the government, so as to squeeze out the powerful regent Zaifeng.

For a time, an extremely complicated political situation emerged within the Qing court. Each of them intrigued and formed factions for their own power, and the rulers of the Qing court had no intention of doing state affairs.

On the 20th of the first month of the first year of Xuantong, Chen Zhong issued an order for the Hainan army to start an attack on all fronts, announcing that it would reach Beijing within three months and completely overthrow the terminally ill Qing Dynasty.

After receiving the order, Blade and Ling Zhan first started a battle in Xi'an.

After receiving the news of the urgency of the war in Xi'an, the Qing court immediately dispatched Mongolian cavalry troops to aid Xi'an.

The Mongolian cavalry, which had created countless glories in the Middle Ages, rushed to the Hainan army outside Xi'an like layers of turbulent waves.

The 1st Cavalry Brigade of the Blade was stationed in the northwest outside the city of Xi'an, three mixed brigades, and the 19th Army of the Yellow Label was stationed in the southern part of the suburbs of Xi'an.

Faced with a crowd of 50,000 Mongol cavalry, they agreed that the two armies would first shell the Mongol cavalry with artillery from two directions.

Then, the 19th Army of the Yellow Label was using armored vehicles to carry out a second round of assault and fire on the Mongol cavalry that charged to the front of the formation.

These armoured vehicles used a double layer of thickened steel plates, which were stuffed with soft and extremely tough materials that would cushion the impact of bullets.

Such a design, even if the bullet passes through the first layer of steel of the armored vehicle, slows down the rate of fire of the bullet in the middle compartment. By the time the bullet struck the second layer of steel, there was not much impact. Therefore, the personnel inside the armored vehicle are extremely safe.

When designing these armored vehicles, four to eight machine-gun holes were installed inside the armored vehicles, so that they could attack the enemy around the armored vehicles while driving.

The Mongolian horse corps is now equipped with spears and broadswords, which have been replaced by rifles.

At the head of the Mongolian cavalry was Prince Amurlingui. Amur Lingwe is a member of the Left Rear Banner of the Jerim League and the great-grandson of Prince Amur Linggui.

After the regent of Zaifeng Jianguo, the military leaders in the country were immediately adjusted, and the Mongol cavalry was replaced by Prince Amur Linggui.

This time, to relieve the siege of Xi'an, Zaifeng ordered Prince Amur Linggui to personally lead more than 50,000 horse infantry to Xi'an to stop the fierce offensive of the Hainan army directly approaching the Beijing division.

Prince Amurlingwe commanded a total of 50,000 Qing troops, including nearly 20,000 Mongolian horses.

At noon on the 26th day of the first month of the first year of Xuantong, the artillery units of the Daofeng Special Operations Unit and Huangbiao began to launch artillery attacks on the Qing army garrison.

The Mongol army led by Prince Amurlingwe was also ready for battle, and while the Hainan army shelled it, these Mongol troops also began to charge the Hainan army.

In order to defend against the formidable Mongolian cavalry, the Hainan army used hundreds of machine guns to fire at the fierce Mongolian cavalry.

The horses of the Mongol cavalry, in an instant, were killed and wounded. The horses galloped back in fright, impulsing the infantry units behind, and in an instant, the Mongol army was in great confusion and retreated.

Under the first round of artillery bombardment by the Hainan army, the Mongol troops of the Qing army suffered heavy casualties, and Prince Amurlingwe immediately led his troops to retreat to the city of Xi'an.

In the first round of the assault, the Mongol cavalry was defeated. Prince Amurlingwe did not adopt the method of hard fighting, but avoided the sharp edge of the Hainan army and dodged the shelling of the Hainan army.

After Prince Amur Linggui's headquarters retreated to Xi'an, he and Zhao Erxun agreed that the whole army would be divided into two routes, West and Na, to attack the enemy army in Hainan.

And at night, he ordered his soldiers to dig deep trenches outside the city to prevent the mobile troops of the Hainan army from besieging Xi'an City.

At the same time, he organized a horse team of 4,000 men to divide into two teams, set off from the south gate and the north gate respectively, and ordered them to attack from the rear of the artillery positions of the Hainan army and destroy the artillery offensive of the Hainan army.

And organize a limited number of fifty cannons to shell the Hainan army on the outskirts of the city outside the west gate, which is used to attract the firepower of the Hainan army, cover the horse teams in both directions, and attack the rear of the Hainan army.

If this is the case, if Prince Amurlingwe destroys the momentum of the Hainan army's artillery attack in one fell swoop, the superiority of the Mongol cavalry can be brought into play.
