"I want to take care of it, but where to start!"

Wang Hengyue said with a sad face: "Do you see that there are people in Sichuan who listen to me?" I set up the Sichuan military and political axe, called the governor, of course, this position should be done by Brother Kewu, I am presumptuous, but I set up this Sichuan military and political axe, but there is no one who responds. Zhou Jun, help Chen Eun beat me, Liu Cunhou, ignore me at all, even if you Brother Kewu, ah, hahaha, brother said the wrong thing. ”

Wang Hengyue said "haha": "Let's talk about that Liu Xiang, but he was rewarded by Yuan Shikai, where do you take me, the governor of Sichuan, as a matter of fact?" There are also Dai Kan and Luo Peijin, their Yunnan army is coming as soon as they say, and they can fight if they want to, and they are very majestic in the land of southern Sichuan! Let's tell you the truth, Brother Kewu, I'm really fed up with this anger, if I hadn't taken care of the overall situation, my brother would have thought about it a long time ago, and this position would not be able to serve the public unless you Brother Kewu came to sit and sit! ”

Xiong Kewu couldn't laugh or cry when he heard it.

Whoever beats Chengdu first is the lord of Chengdu, that is the first thing he Wang Hengyue said, but now it's good, he pushed it all away, as if this matter has nothing to do with him from beginning to end.

I originally wanted to get Wang Hengyue's support and defeat other forces in one fell swoop, but I never expected that Wang Hengyue would directly close the door.

Xiong Kewu hardened his scalp, and retreated and said: "Brother Shuzhi, this time Kewu came, not for anything else, after fighting outside Chengdu for a long time, our department is really short of ammunition, and I want to ask Brother Shuzhi to support some!" ”

"And such a thing? Brother Kewu, I didn't say you, why didn't you tell me earlier if you had such difficulties? As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Hengyue shouted at that time:

"Janssen!"

"Here!"

"Immediately transfer a hundred boxes of ammunition and fifty boxes of explosives from you to Brother Kewu!"

"Nope!" Janssen said crisply.

"Bastard! Bastard! Bastard! Wang Hengyue was furious: "Brother Kewu is my brother-in-law, now my brother-in-law is in trouble, you actually said no?" Come on, pull it out and shoot it! ”

Yang Sen straightened his chest: "Report to Heng Shuai, even if you want to be shot, you won't!" I had to fight with Beiyang before, and I had to support the Dian army, where did I have the reserves? ”

"There's some truth to that, too." Wang Hengyue's anger disappeared a lot, and he looked apologetic when he turned to Xiong Kewu: "Brother Kewu, it's not that I won't help you, it's true, hey Yang Sen, I now order you, dig three feet into the ground, and find me a few boxes of bullets!" ”

"Yes, my guard battalion still has a few boxes of bullets, and I am willing to separate two boxes to support Commander-in-Chief Xiong!"

"Well, okay, this is like my subordinates" Wang Hengyue smiled at Xiong Kewu and said: "Brother Kewu, you see that I am really in difficulty, and I can only support so much." Don't worry, Brother Kewu, as long as I am relieved of this situation, I will also help Brother Kewu by smashing pots and selling iron! ”

Xiong Kewu looked at Wang Hengyue in a daze.

Wang Hengyue has changed, and he is no longer the Wang team official he was back then! Although he had discovered it before, when he saw Wang Hengyue this time, he suddenly found that he was so strange, and the strangeness made people feel scared.

There is already a wall between himself and him

Xiong Kewu stood up: "Shuzhi, no, Wang Dudu, thank you for your kindness, since you have difficulties, Xiong Kewu will no longer embarrass you, farewell!" ”

"Someone, send Commander-in-Chief Xiong!"

Wang Hengyue looked at Xiong Kewu's back, and the smile on his face disappeared.

His friendship with Xiong Kewu ended here.

"Three rescues of Xiong Kewu", even if he turns his face with him, there is nothing to be blamed by others.

"Heng Shuai, send Xiong Kewu away!"

"Oh, got it." Wang Hengyue responded: "Yang Sen, get ready." ”

"Yes!"

Wang Hengyue's "standing by" made Xiong Kewu completely lose hope in Wang Hengyue.

Chengdu is still in chaos, today you help me, tomorrow I will beat you, everyone is staring at Chengdu, everyone forgets that there is a hungry tiger behind him.

Just when Sichuan was fighting, the situation in the whole country began to undergo major changes.

In late May, the Beiyang system became more and more dissipated, Yuan Shikai's regime was said to be at a dead end, the pressure of Guangxi Protector [***] on Hunan was strengthened, and the anti-Yuan people's army in Hunan became stronger and stronger, and on May 24, Tian Yingzhao, the envoy of Xiangxi Town and the commander of the Zhenhuang Army, announced that he could read his power, and these new circumstances forced Tang Qianming, the general of Jingwu in Hunan, to announce his reading power on May 29.

In the north, Shaanxi was the only province in northern China to read power, but it was a scandalous scene in the anti-Yuan movement, and reading power became a means for local warlords to compete for power. On May 9, Chen Shufan, the envoy of Shaanxi Town, announced his reading power in Sanyuan, claiming to be the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi [***]. On May 15, Chen Shufan led his troops into Xi'an, and on May 18, Lu Jianzhang was in the name of a mighty general, and Chen Shufan was in the name of the governor of Shaanxi.

In Shandong, one of the leaders of the Kuomintang, Ju Zheng and Wu Dazhou, organized armed forces in the areas of Weixian, Gaomi, and Zhoucun in Shandong, and Ju Zheng was called the commander-in-chief of the Northeast of the Chinese Revolutionary Army. Shandong's anti-Yuan forces swelled greatly, and in early May, the People's Army advanced to the vicinity of Jinan, urging Shandong General Jin Yunpeng to announce his reading power, and on May 29, Yuan summoned Jin to Beijing to discuss the issue of abdication, and Jin was ordered to do immediately, and Yuan ordered him to be dismissed from his post of supervising Shandong's military affairs halfway through, and Zhang Huaizhi, commander of the Fifth Division, was assigned to succeed him. This time, Shandong's reading power was miscarried.

The provinces have read their strength, and Yuan Shikai's history has come to an end!

He has no problem being a man and a political expert, but his fatal flaw is that he is unwilling to treat people with sincerity and be gullible. His background was unreliable, his rise, of course, was due to his intelligence, so he jumped from the temple pillar to the president of the Republic of China, from the president of the Republic of China to Emperor Hongxian, and then from Emperor Hongxian to the president of the Republic of China, he bowed to everything, concentrated power, he knew that the emperor could not do but was willing to be the emperor, because he did not like the president to be subject to the Congress and the responsible cabinet to reduce the power of the president, thinking that the emperor could avoid these confusions.

On June 2, Yuan Shikai ordered Zhang Yilu to send a telegram to his old friend Xu Shichang, at this time Xu Shichang had returned to Hui County, Henan, and Yuan Shikai asked him to come to Yanjing immediately to see him for the last time. Xu Shichang arrived in Beijing on June 5 and immediately rushed to the presidential palace, Yuan Shikai was lying on his back, weak, panting very much, and said tremblingly:

"Chrysanthemum, it's good, it's good, I'm not in the middle of it."

Xu Shichang and Yuan Shikai have been friends for the longest time, good friends for 40 years, and they get along very happily in both public friendship and personal relationships. He quietly turned his back and tried his tears, and then said softly: "The president doesn't have to be anxious, he will be fine after a few days." ”

Yuan Shikai shook his head and closed his eyes, and a large tear flowed from the corner of his eye. It turned out that Yuan Shikai's illness had worsened the day before, and the presidential palace urgently asked the French legation medical officer Bu Xier to diagnose the symptoms, and Bu Xier determined that it was uremia, and he was diagnosed with neurasthenia, liver fire and congestion, and he was terminally ill, and it was concluded that it was difficult to save him.

By the 5th, Yuan Shikai's spirit was getting worse and worse, and Bu Xier gave Yuan Shikai a shot in the arm, and Yuan Shikai's consciousness was slightly sober. It happened that Xu Shichang came, but soon Yuan fell into a coma again.

When Yuan Shikai was dying at the end, he said the words "he hurt me" intermittently, which seemed to be his last words. Who killed him? His son? Or is it his friend or subordinate?

At 3 o'clock in the morning on June 6, the 5th year of the Republic of China, Yuan Shikai finally lost his breath, this troubled hero, an important figure in the two eras of the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China, finally said goodbye to the world.

After Yuan Shikai died, Zhang Yilu found his own elegy in the drawer of his desk:

"Go to a great enemy for the sake of the book; Look at China's reinvention of the republic. ”

Yang Duwan, the head of the six gentlemen of Hong Xian, Yuan Lianyun:

"The Republic of China mistook the republic, the republic did not misunderstand the Republic of China, and it was a prison for thousands of years; The Ming Duke is responsible for the Jun Xian, the Jun Xian is not the Ming Gong, and the Jiuquan is under the three Fu Si Yan. ”

Yuan Shikai still went after all, this strongman, this figure with a mixed reputation in Chinese history, is gone.

One of the heroes fell, and countless heroes stood up one after another.

One of the most colorful eras in Chinese history is coming:

Warlord Age!

This will be an era of heroes, an era when everyone can be president, and a time full of opportunities and challenges!

Everyone is a warlord, everyone is a "big handsome", and everyone can look at the world!

But the appearance of a character will inevitably change the direction of this era:

Wang Hengyue!

The governor of the Sichuan military and political axe, when he heard the news of Yuan Shikai's death, he was silent there for a long time.

When Yuan Shikai summoned him to Yanjing, he had the impulse to go.

It is actually a good thing to meet Yuan Shikai, a big figure in Chinese history.

Unfortunately, this wish can no longer be fulfilled.

Wang Hengyue also knew that Yuan Shikai also wanted to see him. It's a pity that these two people can't meet together in their lives. If there is a next life, I really want to have a good conversation with Yuan Shikai.

Who is after Yuan Shikai? At least no one can answer now.

When Yang Sen walked in, he saw Heng Shuai with his eyes closed, and he didn't dare to disturb, so he could only stand quietly to the side. After a while, Wang Hengyue opened his eyes:

"What's the matter?"

"It's been almost three months since Chengdu was fighting, everyone was exhausted, and the ammunition was about to run out, and now I think they all have the intention of quitting."

"Oh, that's pretty much it?"

"Yes, almost."

Wang Hengyue closed his eyes again, as if he had fallen asleep, he lay there for a long time, suddenly stood up, glanced at the map of Sichuan hanging on the wall, and then said slowly:

"End the chaotic war situation and unify Sichuan by force!"
