Chapter 734: Changes in the Capital
When the telegram arrived in Zhao Guanhou's hands, he was still in this secret base, Hannah listened to the telegram with sleepy eyes, and then woke up in shock. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"God, this is a coup d'Γ©tat! Your president actually asked a general to carry out a coup d'Γ©tat with him! It's hard to imagine that in a republican country, the president should rely on a coup d'Γ©tat to settle the cabinet......"
"Li Bodhisattva was forced to sing out of Xiaoyaojin and sent me an edict with clothes, but I am not Liu Bei, let alone Dong Cheng, but I don't have the heart to ask Cao Cao for him." Zhao Guanhou smiled, admiring the appearance of the jade man who had just woken up.
"I know that in your heart you want me to support Bodhisattva Li, after all, he is against the declaration of war on Pu. But I have to say, you're wrong. Li Bodhisattva was not opposed to declaring war on Pu, he was only against Duan Zhiquan. Duan didn't consult him in advance, and made a decision on his own, so he had to vote against it. This is a battle of righteousness, not righteousness. In fact, at the beginning, Lao Li supported the declaration of war against Prussia. Because he supported it, Duan Zhiquan opposed it. Now, because Duan Zhiquan supports the declaration of war, Lao Li refuses. As for asking for force to solve the Duan system, I am afraid that Lao Li was bullied too fiercely, and he couldn't bear it, so he could only fight hard. From an intellectual point of view, I am in favor of a declaration of war against the Prussians. Who let me sneak attack Qingdao...... We don't talk about the military, we just talk about the economy. At present, the government of the Republic of China is paying for all the money it relies on loans from foreigners. If it refuses to enter the war and the countries stop issuing loans, how can the country be maintained? So no matter who wins the most in the Li Duan, war will be declared on Prussia, and there will be no change. β
Hannah's eyes sparkled and she choked up "I...... I know. Mr. Duan Zhiquan himself was a pro-Prussian guest, and as far as I know, Mr. Duan personally did not see non-Prussian doctors and did not take non-Prussian medicines, and he also respected Prussia very much in the construction of the army. In the Empire's previous plans, he was seen as an ally. Even he wants to declare war on our country, and naturally President Lebanon cannot be expected to have a friendly attitude towards Prussia. I hope you will participate in this positive change, not for my country, but for your ....... After all, you can get a lot of benefits in the future by helping the president crusade against the president, right? β
"It will also come at a great cost." Zhao Guanhou shook his head and said: "Li Shou has no military power, if the positive change is successful, he will naturally hand over all the military to me." This is good, but we also have to consider the harm. If I really attack the crooked nose, it will be tantamount to a complete break with the Beiyang system, and the people of the Overseer Legion will also regard me as a revenge. Everyone is from a small station, and their lips are cold and their teeth are cold, and when the time comes, it will be a big mess. Regardless of victory or defeat, it was all for the southern Geming Party to benefit out of thin air. I'm not on the same path as the southerners, so what good is it for me to get their benefits? So, I can't help with this favor. Besides, I'm not interested in the position of chief of the army, isn't it good to be a marshal? Whatever they toss, where you want to play, I'll go with you. β
Seeing him with this attitude, Hannah couldn't say anything more. After breakfast, the seventh girl sent another telegram from the capital, and this time the messenger was Chen Lenghe. Zhao Guanhou read the telegram, his face became ugly, and he slapped the table:
"The little fan is so bold!"
"What's wrong?"
"Last night, those Xuzhou soldiers first asked for money in the capital, and then mutinied. The mutinous soldiers, who attacked the Ministry of Finance, went to besiege the presidential residence. Li Huangpo fled under the cover of the guards, and his whereabouts are unknown. Duan Zhiquan decided to reopen the election and elect a new president. β
Hannah covered her mouth with her hands and exclaimed, "They...... They actually murdered the president? β
"It's not necessarily murder, the person with a crooked nose has some talent, but he has a worse decision. Besides, Li Huangpo is the president of the Communist Party after all, and killing him will have too much impact. Xiao Xu dared to do it, and he didn't dare to crook his nose. I think that most of them are temporarily lost and unable to make a sound, and the outside world will react together, and Li Huangpo's whereabouts will definitely be found. Most of this matter came from Lao Li's telegram. The telegram inviting me to administer justice leaked the news, and the little fan took the lead and cleaned up the president. β
Hannah hurriedly said: "Then isn't his next step likely to deal with you?" β
"Just him? Also worthy! If he had the guts, now Leng He and the others would have been arrested. This mutiny was only aimed at the president's residence, and the attack on the Ministry of Finance only attacked the public office, not private residences. In fact, it told me that this matter has nothing to do with me, and Lu Jun should not intervene. What's more, in Zhili, there is still the Third Division stationed, and he also has to weigh the weight. However, he will most likely be prepared to prevent me from taking action against him. Seventh! β
"Serve the marshal!"
"Let's find out, what Ni Jichong is doing in Bengbu, and whether there is any movement between him and his subordinates."
In this base, there is a complete system of intelligence sending and receiving, if there is a change in Jinan, Zhao Guanhou can even use this as a temporary command organization to give orders to the outside world. The seven girls' actions were very efficient, and by the time ten o'clock passed, the situation in Bengbu had been figured out.
As Zhao Guanhou expected, Ni Jichong carried out emergency mobilization in Anhui, and the Anwu army moved frequently and marched towards the Bengbu area, obviously aiming at Xuzhou and threatening Zhao Guanhou's rear. If the Lu army moves, the Anwu army may have to take action. However, due to the suddenness of the incident, the mobilization efficiency of the Anwu Army was extremely low, and the military operations were chaotic, let alone secrecy. Judging from the information sent by the Road Bureau, many units are seriously lacking, and some units have lost artillery and other heavy weapons, and they are obviously in a hurry.
After the seventh girl put down the information, she stood behind Zhao Guanhou obediently, beat her shoulders for him, and said with a smile: "Dashuai, Ni Jichong is the iron core of the Duan system, and he is showing his teeth and claws at you." I see that he is impatient to stay in Anhui, and with a wave of his hand, he swallowed his Anhui. β
"Swallow Anhui...... It's not as interesting as swallowing you. It's better to keep picking up your little goblin. Zhao Guanhou grabbed the hand of the seventh girl and gently rubbed the back of her hand. Lao Ni is also very inward-looking, and has no heart. It's okay to put on a show, but if he really uses force, I don't think he has the guts. β
With this incident, the trip to the base could only end early, and when Zhao Guanhou returned to Jinan, Yuqing already had some information about the incident in the capital. The Lu family has its own spies in the Congress and the Army, and the clan is the clan.
Although the former Jin Emperor abdicated, the clan still had a certain influence in the capital. With the strength of several aspects combined, it is probably not difficult to figure out this matter.
"Our power in the capital has begun to operate, on the one hand, to protect the two sluts in Songjiang, and on the other hand, to watch Meng Siyuan and them, don't be affected by the pond fish. Fortunately, these soldiers did not go crazy, they just robbed some shops, and they didn't even dare to burn down the houses, and our people were safe. β
"The pigtail soldiers are crazy, and even Zhang Yuan may not be able to control it, let alone a small fan. Judging from their performance this time, these soldiers showed that they were well-trained and able to advance and retreat, which was by no means something that braided soldiers could do. If I'm not mistaken, it's the basic troops of the Duan Department, pretending to be pigtailed soldiers. β
Zhao Guanhou showed Li Huangpo's telegram to Yuqing, who was quite embarrassed and said: "A president, who is bullied and wants to rebel, it seems that the position is not very comfortable. If there had been such a telegram a few days ago, I would have urged you to raise an army. Take this opportunity to remove the second drive section of Li and let us sit on our own. But after seeing the results of the fourth brother and Jin Ying, I don't want to do it anymore. Let's stay in Shandong and never go anywhere, and live our good life with peace of mind. β
"Gege can think like this, I am happier than being a president. Let's just guard our son and girl, don't go anywhere, being the king of freedom here, it's much more comfortable than going to the capital to be a gas bag. β
"You want to be comfortable, but some people don't." Yuqing smiled and sat in Zhao Guanhou's arms, and brought a telegram to him, "Look, this is an urgent telegram from Jiangning Feng Huafu." He also heard about this in the capital, and he was moved. β
Yuan Weiting died on the same day, and Feng Yuzhang was elected vice president, according to the common law, the vice president has the right to take over if the president has an accident. In the current situation, Feng Yuzhang is the closest to the presidential throne in legal system. However, in order not to be controlled by Duan Xu, Feng Yuzhang did not enter Beijing, but took this position in Jiangning. Now that the incident happened suddenly, Duan used force to drive Ni away, and the advantage was to fight quickly. If Duan Zhiquan takes over as president on the principle of proximity, Feng Yuzhang has nothing to say, and he has to be the vice president aggrieved.
He sent this telegram to ask for help from Shandong, hoping that the Overseer would stand up and support him as president. He and Zhao Guanhou are considered to be fellow villagers, and they are also relatively close to each other in the Beiyang system because of their origins. When he made this request, he would naturally give benefits, but it was not clear what he could give.
Feng Yuzhang acted quickly, and a few days later, a special train from Nanjing docked steadily at the Jinan wharf.
Feng Yuzhang is a big man in Beiyang, and when he was training at a small station, he participated in it, and he was as famous as Duan Zhiquan and Wang Shizhen, and he was far older than Zhao Guanhou in terms of qualifications within Beiyang. But just like Duan Zhiquan, he also suffered a loss from the wife he married. The Mrs. Zhou, who was in Fengmen's heart and Yuan, regarded Yuan Weiting as her father. Zhao Guanhou not only called Yuan Weiting his brother-in-law, but naturally he was also qualified to be a senior in front of Feng Yuzhang.
Looking at this little senior who was much younger than himself, but older than himself, Feng Yuzhang could only smile helplessly
"Guanshuai, Jingli is about to fall into trouble, you will hide from it. Unfortunately, the republic was first abolished and the constitution was established, and now there is a haunting palace. Zhiquan drives the Bodhisattva by force, which is a concern for doing as it comes. The little fan beside him is really a troublemaker, and the Gonghe will break in his hands sooner or later. I have a sentence to say in front of Guan Shuai. Zhiquan and I, the kowtowing brothers, have nothing to say to each other. What's what's his, I'm not going to fight with him for anything. But the little fan beside him really makes people have nothing good to say. With him, there will be no peaceful life. Besides, around Lao Duan, there are a group of Hui people, and if they have nothing to do, they want to ask for official territory. Wu Zixin's uncle, didn't he almost run to Xuzhou? If we Zhili people don't unite and have official hats, we will not be robbed by Anhui people. β
Zhao Guanhou waved his hand to interrupt Feng Yuzhang's words.
"Anhui people, Zhili people, for me, there is no difference. Everyone is Chinese, don't divide factions by province, this is not a good problem. I'll just say one thing: interests. You are now the vice president, Lao Li is gone, and it is very normal for you to become president. But on the other hand, it is not impossible for the little fan to make a mutiny, force Li Bodhisattva to retreat, and get rid of you. So, whether you can be president or not depends on the situation, right? β
Feng Yuzhang nodded, "Hua Fu is not a person who covets fame, as a soldier, he has to be appointed as an overseer, and he is already a creation." The presidency, Hua Fu didn't want to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it. But...... In the current situation, Huafu does not dare not go out of the mountain. The little fan uses positive means to get rid of Lao Li, and the Ge Ming Party in the south will not sit idly by, and if they use the topic to play, our country will be in chaos. Now, a new president must come out and stabilize the situation. Zhiquan expelled Lao Li and became president again, which is too ugly, and I came out to be president, in fact, to slander him. But...... Brother Zhiquan may be able to understand my distress, and the little fan is probably going to hate me to the bone. β
Zhao Guanhou did not deny that "the small fan has a narrow temperament, this is a public opinion, think about it, you know, he will not have a good opinion of you." In addition, he even dares to do rebellion, Huafu, you enter the capital alone, most of them are not safe. β
What Guanshuai said is that Hua Fu has thought about it, and if he enters Beijing, he must bring some people. When the time comes, the troops will cross the border, and I hope that it will be convenient for the commander. β
"Don't worry, the Beiyang Great Alliance was facilitated by me, and I will definitely not do the disarming of the transit troops. You were originally the vice president, and now you want to be the president, which is reasonable. I'm not going to get in the way in this matter. On the side of the Congress, let me give you a word that the Shandong parliamentarians will not get in your way. As for ...... in the bank"
Seeing that he was silent, Feng Yuzhang hurriedly said: "I hope that the two wives can solve the issue of military salaries as much as possible." Huafu will also be rewarded. β
"Look at your conscience, for the sake of Datong Township, I will help you for two months in terms of military salary, and I will talk about the rest later. But Jiangning is an important place, and Jiangsu is also a place of ointment for me. If you leave like this, you can't give up your territory. Jiangsu overseer, I have to find someone to pick up the seal, I think my third brother Li Xiushan is suitable, what is your opinion? β
In Feng Yuzhang's meaning, he once thought of receiving the seal in Jiangning and moving the capital to Jiangning. But later, at the suggestion of his staff, he also knew that this plan would not succeed. retreated to the next best, hoping to appoint a confidant of his own to oversee the army in Jiangsu, and remotely control it in the capital.
However, Zhao Guanhou not only patrolled the two rivers, but also held heavy troops, and he also had enough contacts in Jiangning City. If the new Overseer doesn't work his way, a little bit of force can cause a lot of trouble for the new Overseer, and sooner or later. He came to the door this time, not only to seek support from Zhao Guanhou, but also to ask for a word to determine his successor.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Guanhou was unceremonious, opened his mouth directly, and asked for the position of the overseer of Jiangsu for Li Xiushan, so he had to smile and echo, "What Guanshuai saw, the same as me, this big seal, except for Xiushan, no one is worthy of it." As for the seal of the Jiangxi overseer, I want to hand it over to Chen Xiufeng, I don't know what Guanshuai thinks? β
"Hua Fu, you are the dignified vice president, and it won't be long before you become the president. It is your right to appoint the overseers, let alone the overseers of Jiangxi, even if it is to take my seal, that is, a matter of one sentence, how dare I make irresponsible remarks about your arrangement? β
Feng Yuzhang hurriedly smiled: "Laughing, laughing." Guanshuai is my Beiyang hero, how dare I disrespect Guanshuai's opinion. You see, what do you think about the situation in the capital, just ask, Yuzhang should do his best. β
"Lao Feng, let me tell you the truth, I am not very ambitious, I have money in my waist and a beauty in my arms, I don't care about other things. In the capital, you can toss as you like, I don't care. Everyone is a direct subordinate, and if there is something, I will help you. As long as you don't trouble them, I promise they won't trouble you. If you want to say advice, I only have one, at the moment the southerners are eyeing each other, if you want to live a good life, remember, the battle between the government and the court can no longer be there! Beijing, I'll accompany you in, and see what Lao Duan says, whether he lets this president or not. β
