With the help of the Xi family, coupled with Song Xiaofei's 60,000 new troops annihilating the Japanese 20,000 army, a stable China was in the interests of Britain at this time, and the British minister to China, Zhu Erdian, believed that "China must be Song Xiaofei" at this time, and strongly advocated that Song Xiaofei was China's "first strongman", and Britain was the strongest capitalist country at that time, so Sheng Xuanhuai and Xi Jiadong went very smoothly to find Thai Western Bank to raise loans.

At that time, interest income was the main income of foreign banks, and state loans were a piece of fat, and foreign banks in Britain, the United States, France, Germany, and Russia were afraid that they would not get a piece of the pie, so they let their country's envoys in China come forward to persuade China to ask them for loans. At that time, the borrowing interest rate in the market was generally 5 percent, and China finally borrowed 60 million taels from the British HSBC Bank at an interest rate of 3 percent, 40 million taels at the interest rate of 3 percent at the Qichang Foreign Bank in the United States, and 20 million taels of silver each from France, Germany, and Russia at an interest rate of 4 percent.

Money can solve problems, but not problems. With the silver, 90,000 local coalition troops were peacefully incorporated by the central government, and all of them were handed over to Xu Shichang to be taken to Guanwai to train the new army and garrison the three northeastern provinces.

In August 1895, the Mongol leagues and princes sent a petition to Song Xiaofei, declaring that the autonomy declared during Li Hongzhang's reign as emperor was bewitched by the Russians, and asked them to return to the bosom of China, hoping that the Beijing government would continue to pay the princes and trumpets 800,000 silver dollars a year. It turned out that the Mongol princes, after discovering their autonomy, were in danger of being annexed by Russia at any time. Moreover, the loan promised by Tsarist Russia was not only in installments, but also because of the death of Tsar Alexander III, it has not been disbursed for a year. Song Xiaofei immediately instructed Sheng Xuanhuai to allocate funds to Mongolia immediately. He also instructed Wu Tingfang to take the petition of the Mongolian prince to negotiate with the Russian minister in China: "If the Russians do not withdraw from Mongolia, then China and Russia will face war!" ”

At that time, Tsar Alexander III died of illness and was succeeded by the last Tsar Nicholas II, who was 26 years old, young and inexperienced, and a large number of Russian peasants were bankrupt at that time. Social contradictions intensified, the revolutionary parties revolted against the Tsar, Nicholas II had not been crowned in 1895, Belarus was still fighting for independence, and the squadron won the final victory in the Sino-Russian War around 1879, the Sino-French War in 1883 and the Sino-Japanese War in 1894, so Nicholas II decided to temporarily make friends with China, and China and Russia signed a treaty, and Russia recognized China's sovereignty over Mongolia.

Benefiting from loans and privileges on the Sichuan Railway, China and Britain also signed an agreement under which Britain recognized China's sovereignty over Tibet. Dong Fuxiang and Cao Kun also conquered Qinghai and Gansu provinces at this time. The situation in the whole country was very good, so Song Xiaofei sent a telegram inviting Zhang Zhidong, Liu Kunyi, Wang Wenshao, and other governors, as well as the seven major democratic parties in China at that time, to go to Beijing on 10 September to discuss the great cause of building the country.

Just when Song Xiaofei was busy planning for the great cause of founding the country, Emperor Zhu Xiang, with the funding of the Japanese Blue Dragon Society, sent Zhang Guangpei, Huang Zhimeng, Yang Yuchang, Tao Hongyuan, Xue Rong, Li Huailian, Xu Tonghua, Fu Sixun, Huang Yongqing, Xiao Sheng and other ten members of the Fumin Party. Under the cover of the photo studio opened with the Japanese, an assassination team was formed, each carrying a Mauser gun and a bomb, and entered Beijing to assassinate Song Xiaofei, hoping to "borrow the power of bombs as a way to get excited."

Next to Shichahai Lake in Beijing, there is a Ganshui Bridge, where Song Xiaofei has to pass every day when he goes to the Presidential Palace. Ganshui Bridge is surrounded by water on three sides, and the water is murmuring. Next to the small stone bridge. All are stout ginkgo trees, suitable for hiding. There is also a two-story old traditional building next to the tree, with a sign that reads "Sanshun Teahouse", and Zhang Guangpei feels that this is the best place to explode.

Late at night on August 14, a bright moon like a disc gradually moved eastward over the "Sanshun Teahouse". Huang Zhimeng, Yang Yuchang, and Tao Hongyuan were digging and burying explosives on the east side of the Ganshui Bridge, they were wielding shovels, sweating like rain, and they were unguarded.

Zhang Ergou was forty years old, he worked hard near Shichahai for twenty years to pull a rickshaw, and finally saved enough money, bought an old and decrepit thirty-year-old girl Cuihua from the kiln as a daughter-in-law, I don't want to, her wife followed him for a year, and then ran to mess with other men, that night Zhang Ergou's daughter-in-law Cuihua did not come home for three days, he was in tears, looking for his daughter-in-law everywhere in the dark light, just happened to meet Huang Zhimeng and the three of them digging secretly under the bridge in the middle of the night, I guessed that they were not good people, although Zhang Ergou was just a low-level coachman, But he is not stupid, and he knows that if he encounters a bad person, he must report it to the military police immediately.

More than a dozen military policemen from Beijing City arrived, Huang Zhimeng was lifting his pants to relieve his hands by the bridge, and the military policemen led by him took out their pistols and shouted: "Don't move!" ”

Huang Zhimeng saw that the matter was revealed, and his pants were not put on, so he ran away. The military police pulled out their guns and shot, Huang Zhimeng, Yang Yuchang, and Tao Hongyuan didn't have time to take away the bombs, they pulled out their guns and fired back, and the "bang" gunshots rang out in the night sky of Ganshui Bridge, and soon, Huang Zhimeng, Yang Yuchang, and Tao Hongyuan were arrested. When Feng Guozhang, who was stationed in the capital, heard about this, he was furious, and when he saw that the bombs were all made in Japan or military explosives, he knew that it was right and wrong, and personally interrogated him.

Feng Guozhang didn't know that they had a plan to assassinate Song Xiaofei at this time, and when he was tired, he asked the soldiers to drag the three out and shoot them, and then went to report to Song Xiaofei that "there was a Japanese bomb in the capital", and suggested strengthening the president's escort work, and Song Xiaofei agreed to his plan.

On the morning of 16 August, when dust and fog covered the entire city of Beijing, Song Xiaofei's carriage passed through the Donghua Gate and had just passed through the gate of T-shaped Street, when Zhang Guangpei and seven others suddenly rushed out of a teahouse on the side of the road, threw a bomb, and exploded with a "bang." Song Xiaofei's carriage ran fast, the dust from the bomb blew up on the wheels of the carriage, and then, the carriage turned a corner, turned the front of the carriage, and stopped in front of them, Zhang Guangpei and others were stunned, Song Xiaofei's carriage cloth curtain was lifted, Feng Guozhang sat inside, and there was a special black Makqin heavy machine gun in the carriage, Feng Guozhang's eyes widened angrily, and he began to "bang bang" to shoot them with machine guns, the barrel was hot for a while, and Yuan Jinbiao, the leader of the presidential guard, also shot with his own soldiers, Zhang Guangpei's bodies were smashed into sieve holes on the spot.

Later, Feng Guozhang found the waist tag of "Shouzhen Photo Studio" on Zhang Guangpei's body, and swept away the Japanese spy den hidden in Beijing. Zhang Ergou was commended by the government and received a heavy award of 300 taels of silver, and his daughter-in-law Cuihua took the initiative to come back.

As soon as the case of the Fuld's assassination of the president came out, the world was shocked! When Song Xiaofei heard Feng Guozhang's report, he was furious and announced that if Japanese businessmen wanted to do business in China in the future, they must first register with the Chinese diplomatic department and pass strict examination. Then, Song Xiaofei showed evidence of the Fumin Party's collusion with the Japanese Blue Dragon Society, declared the Fumin Party an illegal organization and permanently banned it in China, and demanded that the Japanese government immediately extradite Emperor Zhu Xiangdi, otherwise China will send the Beiyang Fleet to bombard Tokyo again!
