Chapter 472: The Power of the Individual

9oo77983

Since the Japanese were reluctant to deal with Morrison, then 1 Morrison only panicked and dealt with the rest of the car. It is understandable that there are both foreigners and Chinese among these people, and most of them are journalists; after all, the move of the 1st Infantry Division to defend the three eastern provinces is a great new ran, which is enough to stir up the pattern of the Far East, and it is understandable that the press is concerned about this matter.

In fact, one of Morrison's companions who is now walking with him to the train station is a Chinese journalist named Shao Zhenqing. Pseudonym Wanderer, is a twenty-five-year-old young man, Xiucai was born, worked as a middle school teacher, after the revolution in the Xijiang military government as the editor of the government gazette, after the abolition of the Xijiang military government, he went to Shanghai, was hired as a reporter by the "declaration", some days ago was ordered to rush to Beijing, as the chief writer of the northern branch newspaper, and Mo Lixun, yesterday learned that the president was about to march in Shanhaiguan for the strong infantry division. He rushed to Shanhaiguan by car, met Mo Lixun in the car, talked very speculatively, and the two became friends in the carriage.

Morrison and Shao Zhenqing both carried briefcases and walked along the railway to the train station, all the way, the two talked all the way, and the content of this conversation was still focused on the one to Mr. President, "Constitutionalism is three steps small. on the speech.

Zhao Bei once said. His ideal of constitutionalism is military government, scraping government, and constitutionalism, and implementing military government first, then government, and finally constitutionalism; these three steps strive to advance steadily and steadily, and never make rash progress; there are quite a few people who agree with this proposition, and Li Yuanhong, Tang Hualong, and others all hold the same view.

Shao Zhenqing, however, disagrees with this, believing that this three-step policy of military administration, intermediary, and constitutionalism is too conservative, and that it is similar to the view of Song Jiaoren, the leader of the constitutionalism faction of the United Front, and that Shao Zhenqing also believes that the realization of complete constitutionalism in one step is conducive to controlling the military and political strongmen and avoiding the emergence of a powerful figure or even a dictator or dictator in the center.

For Shao Zhenqing's straightforwardness, Morrison admires it very much, but at the same time, he also feels sorry for the lack of social experience of this year's light journalists. In Morrison's view, it is basically impossible for this oriental country to establish a complete constitutional system in one step at present, and this not only involves the issue of national quality, but also involves the issue of international political competition, and in the face of the crisis of partition among the great powers. What the country needs most is not a bunch of constitutionalist politicians, but a military and political strongman, a Napoleonic military and political strongman. At that time, if it were not for the dictatorship of Napoleon, France would have been dismembered long ago, and there would be no talk of republican France in the future.

Now, the international environment facing China is so sinister and critical, if we can't unite the people and expel the great powers first, then the constitutional ideal may never be realized.

Whether it is Zhao Bei's practice in the pan-political alliance of the United Front, or his practice on the issue of rural grassroots political power, it proves a truth: this military and political strongman is trying to unite the people.

Considering the function of the strange "hoe society", Morrison even had some doubts about whether Zhao Bei was planning to carry out a drastic reform of the country's grassroots political structure, and perhaps even "draw wages from the bottom of the kettle".

That's why Morrison will be kind to this "Far Eastern madman." Becoming more and more interested, he vaguely felt that if he stayed in China, he might witness the arrival of a great era, which was not only a social change, but might even have a far-reaching impact on the international strategic landscape.

Can the power of an individual, a single person, really drive a rehistory? Morrison took an optimistic wait-and-see stance.

Therefore, when Shao Zhenqing unceremoniously attacked the wrong views of the president of the Republic of China on constitutional issues, Morrison just listened quietly, and did not recommend peace, but he did not refute it, after all, this is the Chinese's own business, Morrison is just a calm bystander, as long as the president does not hire Morrison as an adviser to the presidential office, then Morrison does not need to say his true thoughts in front of a Chinese reporter.

"Hey, Shao, are your words your own? Or was it influenced by someone else? Morrison finally found an opportunity to interject and asked curiously.

"Part of it is my own opinion, and part of it is influenced by Mr. Song Yuchu. I heard that Mr. Song's posthumous books will soon be published publicly, so I plan to buy them all and study them carefully. China now. When it comes to the study of the constitutional system, no one can compare with Mr. Song, even Mr. Sun, the leader of the League, who is not as profound in theory as Mr. Song. Mr. Song's death is really a great loss to my country's constitutional cause, which is enough to make the people sigh Shao Zhenqing sighed.

Morrison let out an "oh" and didn't ask any further. Indeed, the assassination of Song Jiaoren can be seen as a major setback on the road to constitutionalism in this country, but even if he was not assassinated, the country would not be able to implement a complete constitutional system in a short period of time, which Morrison has no doubt, the evidence is everywhere, and the small railway station in front of him is one of the evidences, one. A country with backward industry and declining commerce is not qualified to talk about constitutionalism, it is a rich man's game, and before it becomes an industrial country, it is more appropriate for the country to be led by a responsible military and political strongman, at least. He can bring order to the country, and "order" is the necessary prerequisite for the country's economic upward development, and it is also this "order" that the country needs most now.

"Look, we're talking patronizingly, and the train station is leading to "don't please." We can't seem to talk about the train station all the time

Morrison paused, raised his finger and pointed ahead.

There, a small railway station was in front of you, and the railroad was full of trains waiting to enter the station, and the road to the station was full of heavily armed soldiers.

Just when Mo Lixun and Shao Zhenqing were inquiring about the president's whereabouts in Shanhaiguan, Zhao Bei, the president of the Republic of China, stood on the gate of Shanhaiguan and looked north with a telescope.

There was a white light in the lens, at this moment. Mr. President's vision is concentrated there, and it is an unusual place, which has also left a record in history and has had a decisive and far-reaching impact on Chinese history.

"That's "a piece of stone," No wonder it is called "a piece of stone", which is full of stones, that is, a rocky beach, and when it is too shameful, there is a white light

Zhao Bei held the binoculars, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

"yes." A piece of stone. It is an ancient battlefield, more than 200 years ago, the Eight Banners were there to defeat the troops behind the palace of the Dashun army of Li Zicheng, and then entered the customs and stole the Central Plains. Look, that place is more favorable to the cavalry, but unfortunately the history books do not accurately record how many cavalry there are in the rear of the Dashun Army. Otherwise, we can do some wargaming here today. Small.

Lan Tianwei, who stood beside Zhao Bei, was also emotional, not only he was, but the officers present had a sense of time confusion for a while, as if they had returned to the battlefield two hundred years ago, and the roar of the Hongyi cannon and the collision of cold weapons sounded in their ears, sometimes, the key point of changing history is often just an unobtrusive detail, if it was not for the key battle after the death of the Ming Dynasty, if it was not for the Manchu Eight Banners into the Central Plains, who would have known that there was an inconspicuous stone beach on the north side of Shanhaiguan called "a piece of stone" This?

This is how history is written, and it is not subject to human will, and the "Wushen Revolution" also exploded at a key point in history. At this inconspicuous point, there are too many "possible ifs" and too many turning points, and where history will unfold, perhaps the decisive factor is often just a group of people, or even just one. Person.

The power of the individual may sometimes be the key to changing history.

If Li Zicheng had not rashly dispatched the main force to attack Shanhaiguan, perhaps today's China would be a different situation, and if there had not been a historical traveler in Anqing City last year, then the current China would still continue to groan in pain under the rule of the Eight Banners nobles.

Only the traverser can really feel the helplessness of history, and Zhao Bei is very emotional now.

"Xiuhao, you said, if we change the original route of the march slightly, let the 1st wounded division go around in a circle, and after leaving the Shanhaiguan South Station, we will not go directly to the North Station, but go around to a stone, walk through the field there, witness the battlefield of the year, and then go to the North Station to get on the train and drive out.

How is the idea?.

Zhao Bei ended his emotion, and he had an idea and put forward an idea.

"Great idea! Tell the officers and soldiers to see where the Eight Banners soldiers entered Shanhaiguan from that year. Now we have finally overthrown the Manchu court, and this piece of stone is the lesson of national defense education

! ”

Cai Feng, who was next to him, listened to it and applauded in front of Lan Tianwei, and now the deputy head of the 6th Military Department is having a headache about this national defense education. Zhao Bei's idea made his eyes light up.

Lan Tianwei also nodded again and again and said, "Good idea, good idea." The 1st Wounded Infantry Division went out of the Guanbei Expedition to exterminate the Manchu Restorationists, and let them walk around a piece of stone, so that they could know where the sinking and humiliation of the past 200 years began. In my opinion, let's simply move the location of the military parade to a rock, and set up a review stand there, where the commander-in-chief will inspect the troops and make another speech, so that the officers and men will know what they are fighting for this time, and this time they will go out of the border to the north to defend national unity. It is also to punish those diehards who still hold on to the Manchu and Han domains, under the republican system, pay attention to the equality of nationalities, but this does not mean that the center will be merciful to the hostile forces! The country cannot be divided, sovereignty cannot be profaned, the national interests must be safeguarded, and those clowns who jump off the beam will surely be eliminated by history. ”

"Xiuhao is right, so it's arranged."

Zhao Bei smiled and nodded, handed the binoculars to an adjutant beside him, and continued to walk and talk with these senior officers on the city.

A staff officer hurried to the castle. Stand and salute the officers.

"Report to the President! The Tianjin Detachment of the Navy has sailed to the sea of Shanhaiguan, and Speaker Li and Speaker Tang have arrived, and although the vice president cannot come, he has also asked Xiong Weigen to bring a letter over, and now Speaker Li and Speaker Tang have boarded the traffic boat and are heading for Shanhaiguan

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the end of our tour for today. Let's go, follow me to meet these distinguished guests, the first meeting of all party members and cadres of the United Front will be held soon, this is a big event, and it cannot be underestimated, Xiong Weigen is the secretary general of party affairs, we can't neglect them. ”

Zhao Bei took the military hat from the adjutant and put it on, and the captain of the guard, Qin Sihu, put on a black-faced cloak for him.
