The Tianjin Army Military Officer School has been suspended, and many students are panicking about their future, not knowing what to do, whether to stay here or follow the principal to Guangdong.
"Guangdong is too far away, and we don't know anyone in Guangzhou, what should we do in the future?" Cao Kun is a native of Tianjin, and his family connections here are good, and his development in the army will be smooth, but he is not familiar with the place where he went to Guangzhou, and his family influence is not there, so he has decided not to go to Guangzhou, so he will stay in Zhili to develop.
"No matter what you think, I'm going to follow the principal, as long as I follow the principal, then I'm willing! You may not know that the principal's new army is powerful, and only by going to the principal's new army can you better play yourself. Duan Qirui said firmly.
Duan Qirui was known as the six prime ministers in later generations, no smoking, no gambling, no drinking, no prostitution, no greed, and no possession. Li Yi appreciates him very much, Duan Qirui was born poor, but his backbone is very hard, as a poor student of military officer studies, he never envies those rich students, not only is he not inferior but also very arrogant.
Duan Qirui's arrogant character is not suitable for going into battle to fight, but is suitable for staying in the discipline department, this kind of character that does not recognize his relatives and will not be bought, is very suitable for staying in Field's military disciplinary committee, Li Yi has the idea of reorganizing the government, party organization, and army, as long as Duan Qirui can withstand this small test and go to Guangzhou, Li Yi will promote him exceptionally.
"I'm also with the principal!" Feng Guozhang snapped his chest, looked at Wang Shizhen in a daze, and asked, "Shizhen, how do you decide?" ”
Wang Shizhen smiled slightly, got up and looked at the classmates around him, and made a vague look at Feng Guozhang and Duan Qirui that everything was under control.
Wang Shizhen, Feng Guozhang, Duan Qirui is known as the coquettish trio of military officers, at the beginning, Nogi Noshinori and others held a debate class in the military officer's school, Nogi Xidian army knowledge is very skilled, and there is no winner with its debaters, usually a few of them Japanese are very arrogant in learning xiào, and often cháng flaunt their excellence in Japan. For a while, no one could debate with him, but in front of the coquettish trio, they were all defeated, and for a time they became the man of the year in military studies, Wang Shizhen was called Zhiduoxing, Feng Guozhang was called Zhanduoxing, and Duan Qirui was called Ao Duoxing.
"The principal said that all students are free to choose zé, and what they stay is the same as those who go to Guangzhou, as long as they contribute to the country, they are the same everywhere!"
Feng Guozhang, as the boss of the coquettish trio, thought that Wang Shizhen would persuade everyone to go to Guangzhou, but didn't he say this to give those students who wanted to stay six steps?
Feng Guozhang couldn't sit still, and was about to speak as soon as he stood up, but was stopped by Wang Shizhen waving his hand, "But the Qing court is like the sunset, although there is afterglow, it will not be long, and the principal is like the rising sun, although it is not dazzling, it is rising!" In the Qing court, we should be slaves, and the principal should be brothers! Where to go, choose zé yourself! ”
"Go to Guangzhou! Go to Guangzhou! Everyone shouted, and Feng Guozhang saw that only a few people chose to stay, and gave Wang Shizhen a thumbs up and shouted: "I don't regret following the principal Yongyuǎn!" ”
Duan Qirui's temper was relatively hot, and when he saw that Cao Kun and his group chose to stay, he opened his mouth to sarcastically and scolded them for being white-eyed wolves, and the group of people who stayed behind did not dare to refute, looking at those hostile eyes, they had no choice but to flash in gray.
256 students, including Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, Wang Shizhen, Duan Zhigui, Lu Jianzhang, Li Chun, Li Changtai, Bao Guiqing, Chen Guangyuan, Wang Zhanyuan, and Tanaka Yu, chose to go to Guangzhou. Most of Li Yi's optimistic students chose to go to Guangzhou, which made him very pleased, and Li Yi did not achieve nothing after staying in Tianjin for a year, at least these students still made him very pleased.
Strictly speaking, this group of students can only be regarded as his second batch of students, and the first batch of students have all entered the middle and high ranks of the army, and the average age of the new army is less than 20 years old, which is a young army, and it can be said that it is the youngest army in the world, and the average age of officers is not more than 25 years old, which is still unprecedented in the world's military history.
On August 10, 1888, Li Yi led the Fifth Division from the land to Nanjing, Jiangsu, Jiangsu and Zhejiang have long been firmly controlled by Li Zhong's Ghost Shadow Society's current secret police force, and he had no plan to withdraw all the new troops from Guangzhou, if it were not for the creation of the world's most powerful economic crisis in history, he would not have had to compromise so much.
Li Yi believes that the Qing government needs the financial support of Guangzhou, and the minting plan will not end for another year, and according to the regulations, the Qing government will have billions of funds to distribute, so that the Qing government will set aside the nine provinces north of Jiangsu, plus give them hundreds of millions of yuan of funds every year, I believe that the Qing government will not dare to really tear its face, and now that the economy of the whole country is controlled by itself, as long as they can still get some funds, they will never dare to tear their faces, let alone publicize Li Yi's economic crisis plan to the outside world.
Although Li Yi has controlled most of the country, he has only controlled one-third of the country's population, and the population of the Qing State is mainly concentrated in the northern region, especially the population of Shandong and Zhili provinces has reached 100 million. The population is not very large, which happens to be a good opportunity to develop the south and stabilize the south.
On 11 August, Li Yi ordered Julian's 5th Division to be stationed in Jiangsu, Zuolong's 1st Division to be stationed in Hubei, Zuo Guigui's 2nd Division to garrison Anhui, Ge Zhenliang's 3rd Division to garrison Sichuan, and Cheng Sijun's 4th Division to garrison Yunnan. Duan Haitao's special combat team, ten recruit training divisions, all returned to Guangdong.
Although the change of guard was fiercely criticized and opposed by the Qing government, Li Yi was not affected in the slightest. He mobilized newspaper public opinion to launch a fierce debate war with the Qing government, and the eyes of the common people were also bright, and now life in the south is getting better and better, especially in Guangdong, where you can earn more money by working in Guangdong for a month than in the north for a year.
As soon as the war of public opinion began, the nimble-minded people knew that reform in the north was about to come to a standstill, and thousands of people from the north migrated to the south every day. The governments of the South were also prepared to collect as much as they could, and to make proper settlements, and there was no such thing as starvation on the streets, and by the beginning of 1889 more than five million immigrants from the North had moved to the South.
Li Yi stayed in Nanjing for more than half a month, made some plans, and then left Nanjing for Guangzhou. Originally, Li Yi planned to go to Shanghai to meet with Li Zhong first, but Li Zhong did not have time, because he was training 500,000 police troops, and he really couldn't find time to meet, and asked Li Yi to approve his resignation from the military council and the resignation of the deputy commander of the Free Army. Li Zhong didn't explain too much, he only said that he would understand everything next year, and he didn't think much about his good brother Li Yi and moved directly from Nanjing to Guangzhou by boat.
