Chapter 49: Wrestling

"Practice, huh." Yuan Shikai nodded and said, "So, you came back this time to prepare to screen sergeants?" ”

"Yes."

Yuan Shikai picked up the pen and said: "In this way, impeaching you for expanding the army without authorization will not be able to pass guò." However, Xiusheng, you should pay attention to the fact that you are now in the army, you are not as casual as teaching at Peking University in the past, but you are not as casual as writing articles in newspapers. There are Beiyang rules for a qiē behavior scheduling, and you have to follow the rules, you know not to skip words.

"Obey the Great President's Decree." Wang Maoru said busily.

"Sit down, let's talk." Yuan Shikai said.

Wang Maoru hurriedly sat down and said, "President, have you been bothered about something recently?" I look at the president's sideburns, and there are a few more gray hairs than when I saw him a few months ago. ”

Yuan Shikai said with a smile: "Xiusheng is observant. ”

"The president is too hard, and his subordinates just care about the president." Wang Maoru was busy patting his ass.

Yuan Shikai pointed to the Wen jiàn on the table and said, "These Wen jiàn, look, what are they?" In this article, the bandits in Dingyuan County, Anhui Province broke through the county seat and were known as the Jianghuai Righteous Army. This is the people of Mengxian County, Shanxi Province, resisting taxes and attacking the county seat. There is also this article, the Hulunbuir Autonomous Government signed an agreement with the Russians without authorization to develop a contract for the mining of wood in Unurgou. This article is Sun Wen's call on the Chinese people to carry out treason with violence in Japan. There are many more here, alas, the country is in a mess, and it is not as quiet as when it was in the former Qing Dynasty. Wang Maoru didn't dare to interrupt him, Yuan Shikai said: "Xiusheng, you are studying international relations, can other countries be like this?" ”

Wang Maoru then said: "President Mingjian, when he was in Europe, he had a lot of research on German history. Yuan Shikai also admired Germany very much, so he nodded, Wang Maoru continued: "Germany originated from the Germanic tribes from 1,700 to 1,900 years ago, which is equivalent to the Han Dynasty in China. After the gradual expansion of the tribe, it came into contact with the ancient Roman Empire and was ruled by the Roman Empire. As a result, the Roman Empire was divided into hundreds of small domains, each with a lord, so the Germanic peoples were always divided. After that, the Kingdom of the Franks rose, the predecessor of present-day France, and Germany was under the orders of the Kingdom of the Franks. Later, the Frankish kingdom fell apart and was divided into three major groups: Eastern, Central and Western: the Western Group is the territory of present-day France, the Eastern Group is present-day Germany, and the Central Group is present-day the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg, as well as the disputed areas of Germany and France. Therefore, Germany and France belong to the same origin, but they are also feuds. The first emperor in Germany was in the 14th century, canonized by the Roman Church, the German emperor, but the German emperor was Austrian, and then in the 17th century, at the instigation of France, the German Confederation appeared in Germany to fight against the German emperor, and directly sent troops to defeat the German emperor. Later, however, the French Emperor Napoleon unified Europe and forced the German Confederation to unite, and after decades of fighting, the idea of a unified German region gradually formed. Later, the German emperor compromised and no longer ruled over the people, but was only responsible for the management of the army and the ceremonial diplomacy of the state, and handed over the executive power to the Reichstag, and Bismarck, the iron-blooded prime minister of West Prussia, came to power, and he unified Germany, and defeated France in the Franco-Prussian War, which made Germany really rise. Therefore, for the first 1,000 years, Germany was divided into different countries, and it was not until the reunification of the country that a real sense of nationality and nationality emerged. He added: "Your Excellency, the so-called world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time, why not?" It is the people's yearning for reunification after experiencing the pain of national division, and now that the country has just been reunified, why are there frequent outbreaks in various places? Because the people did not know the suffering, the president compromised with the south, so that China would not be divided, and the Qing Dynasty became the Republic of China too quickly, so that the people did not realize your contribution to the people, and did not realize your contribution to this country and this nation. They take this hard-won peace for granted, and this is the manifestation of the ignorance of the people. If the country is in a civil war for ten years, ten rooms and nine emptiness, and the country is unified, how can anyone still think about rioting? Therefore, the current outbreak is because the president is too concerned about the country and is soft-hearted. ”

Yuan Shikai was stunned, he didn't expect him to make such a general statement, so he thought about it, and after a while, said with a smile: "Xiusheng's words are also a novelty, if you argue with Yang Huizi, it will be quite interesting." ”

Wang Maoru hurriedly said: "Mr. Huizi is talented, unparalleled national soldier, and his humble position is really not as good." ”

I don't know how much Yuan Shikai listened, but he signed a document, handed it to him, and said: "Although you have made great contributions, you can only be rewarded with some medals for a while, and nothing else." Now the War Department is also agreeing, how to reward you, you go back and wait. ”

"Yes."

"There is also the need to select the troops earlier, so as not to give people excuses."

"Yes." Wang Maoru turned around and walked to the door, Yuan Shikai suddenly said: "Xiusheng, tell me the truth, do you complain that I didn't recruit you two years ago, but just sent you to the Ministry of Education?" ”

Wang Maoru thought for a while and said: "Two years ago, I was a little resentful, but now I think about it, at that time, I was young and vigorous, and I thought that some achievements were fluttering. Now that I think about it, why didn't the president let Xiusheng go to the Ministry of Education to beat up? ”

Yuan Shikai nodded, laughed, and said, "It's good that you can know what I was thinking at that time, even if you stayed by my side at that time, you would be hated in vain." ”

Wang Maoru withdrew from the president's office, and the confidential secretary Lu Bicheng said: "Mr. Xiusheng really thinks so? ”

"What?"

"The rebellion of the country begins with the benevolence of the president?"

Wang Maoru didn't expect that this confidential secretary would eavesdrop on Yuan Shikai's conversation with himself, he was very surprised, Lu Bicheng said: "I'm making records, not eavesdropping, if it's really a secret matter, the confidential department won't record it." Wang Maoru nodded clearly, and said with a smile: "Naturally, if you look at the population of the early Tang Dynasty compared with the population of the Sui Dynasty, the population of the Yuan Dynasty compared with the population of the early Ming Dynasty, and the population of the late Ming Dynasty compared with the population of the early Qing Dynasty, you will know that if the country wants to be stable and grateful to the ruler, it must go through hardships after ten rooms and nine emptiness." ”

Lu Bicheng gritted his teeth and said, "It's really a butcher." ”

Wang Maoru arched his hand and said: "It's just a family's words, Secretary General Lu must not be serious." Lu Bicheng sent him out of the presidential palace, Pu Ji had already driven and waited at the gate of the presidential palace, Wang Mao Ruqi said: "How do you know that I am here?" ”

"Forget about the business investigation company in my hands, don't skip words. Pu Ji laughed and said, "As soon as you came out of the War Department, I knew about it, and I also found out who impeached you and who wanted to punish you strictly." ”

"Well, who is it?"

Pu Jidao: "It is Liang Maokun, chief of the flight section of the Ministry of Communications, who impeached you, and it is Xu Shuzheng, the deputy minister of the army, who wants to deal with you strictly. ”

Wang Maoru clapped his hands and said, "I guess it's them." ”
