Chapter 31 Tripartite Talks

The quarrel between Beiyang and Wuhan has lasted for a month, during which the small war has not stopped, and no one is convinced, but they just don't dare to fight with Qin Yu, and Qin Yu is just slowly increasing the construction of the four provinces, and the current funds are still sufficient, but the return of funds will be very slow.

In the month when Wuhan and Beiyang were fighting, the people in China began to hope for a unified government, so the voice of civil unification is now very loud, and many countries have recalled their ambassadors to China, because there is no unified government now.

The people hope that the three parties will stop the confrontation and negotiate, in view of this, Wuhan and Beiyang have begun to stop, after all, their war will only cheapen Qin Yu, and if it continues, it will lose the hearts of the people. Now even in the four provinces of East China, there are many people who have begun to demand the peaceful reunification of the East China government, Qin Yu has to consider the ideas of the people, so he sent a telegram to Yuan Shikai and Sun Dapao hoping that they can come to Nanjing to discuss the important matter of peaceful reunification, and the kind that is still clear and known to the whole country.

After Qin Yu's telegram was issued, it was unanimously praised by the people of the whole country, saying that it was a blessing for the whole country that Qin Yu was able to put aside his prejudices and carry out such negotiations, and at the same time urged Wuhan and Beiyang to go to Nanjing for negotiations as soon as possible.

At this time, Yan Xishan also came out to make trouble, and telegraphed that he was eager for the reunification of the whole country, and hoped that the three parties could come up with a plan, and that he would also send representatives to Nanjing at that time.

It doesn't matter to Qin Yu about his troublemaking, Sun Cannon and Yuan Shikai have opinions, you dare to make trouble even if you are a little wall grass, and you really take yourself seriously.

Sun Dacang in Wuhan and Yuan Shikai in Beijing were very depressed after receiving Qin Yu's telegram, why did they go to Nanjing instead of Wuhan (Beijing), didn't this lower them? But you have to go, the whole country knows about it, and if you don't go, isn't it clear that you don't want reunification and want to rebel against the people of the whole country?

Sun Cannon and Yuan Shikai both telegraphed and said that they would send someone to participate, but they didn't go there in person because they were busy, they wouldn't go there, and they would be killed by Qin Yu if they weren't careful, and Qin Yu didn't explain the time, so they could delay it.

Qin Yu didn't say that the time was also pushing, and now it's really a headache to set up a state in this situation, with Qin Yu's variable, it's not clear whether the democratic republic or the federal system is clear, but Qin Yu didn't think about establishing a unified government with Wuhan and Beiyang at all, and he had a big head when he thought of fighting with them, and he didn't have the energy to do this with these people.

Just when the three parties began to postpone, Yan Xishan came out to make trouble again, and he called to ask the three parties to determine a time, otherwise when would it be reunified. The whole country has also begun to call on the three parties to take action, asking them to set a time to discuss state affairs.

Qin Yu is now like eating a fly, the negotiation was said by himself, and now he has been given a handful of yin by Yan Xishan, Yuan Shikai also knows that this is Xiao Yan taking revenge on him, and he can't help it, as for Sun Dacang, he is even more depressed for no reason, and he also hates Xiao Yan, Yan Xishan is also nervous for a while, and now he regrets it.

As a last resort, Qin Yu and Yuan Shikai decided to negotiate in Nanjing on March 21, 1912, and Wuhan was ignored by them.

Qin Yu and Yuan Shikai both telegraphed at the same time and said that the time was determined to start the talks on March 21, and at the same time refused to allow Yan Xishan to send someone to come, in fact, Yan Xishan offended the three parties and did not dare to send anyone again, as for Sun Dacang was very angry after seeing the power, do you two still take me seriously? But he also had to call and say that he would send someone on time, otherwise the good image he had worked so hard to create would be gone.

On that day, in order to show the importance of the negotiation meeting, Qin Yu asked people to drive a car to pick up those delegates, and also imposed martial law on Nanjing City, and the patrol team on the street was obviously larger, and the change of guard became more frequent, and a large number of thugs and so on were warned.

There were more than 30 people on Yuan Shikai's side, Yang Du took the lead, Sun Dacang's side took the lead of Song Jiaoren, and Qin Yu came to talk to them with the governors of the four provinces headed by Qin San.

In a conference room of the Nanjing government, more than 100 people were meeting there, many of whom were sent by various provinces to make soy sauce, and the real discussion was about the representatives of the three parties.

Song Jiaoren was the first to speak: "Our Republic of China government believes that a democratic country should be established, our country was so backward because there was no freedom and democracy, the United States overthrew colonial rule and the rise of black slavery, France overthrew the Bourbon dynasty and became strong, looking at the rise of the great powers, all of them are open and democratic, and now what hinders the development of our country is the feudal system, we want democracy and emancipate the people's minds." ”

Then Yang Du spoke: "My Beiyang government thinks that a constitutional monarchy should be implemented, Japan's constitutional monarchy has made Japan a small country with its current achievements in a few decades, and our country's land and population are dozens of times that of Japan, we can catch up with Japan in a few years, and Britain is also a small land, but today it is only the first in the world, relying on a constitutional monarchy." ”

Finally, Qin San: "The East China government believes that the implementation of the federal system of separation of powers, just like the United States, the United States, a country without civilization inheritance, can become the world's top three powers in such a short period of time is the implementation of federalism, first of all, China's situation is most suitable for the implementation of federalism, and China's ethnic groups are numerous, regional differences are also very large, so the implementation of federalism." ”

Song Jiaoren thinks that it should be a democratic system, Yang Du thinks it should be a constitutional monarchy, and Qin San thinks that it is a federal system like the United States.

The views of the three parties have aroused widespread discussion among the people after they were published in the newspapers, but the democratic system of the revolutionary party is relatively louder than the two sides due to the large number of people, and Yang Du's constitutional monarchy is also very in line with the ideas of the constitutionalists, so the voice is not small, as for Qin San's federalism because there are few people who know about it, so the voice is not big, but the federal system is very much in line with the ideas of these warlords, and even Sun Dacang and Yuan Shikai have to admit that this is the best idea at this stage.

The three parties are constantly clashing, saliva is flying all over the sky, and no one of the three parties is convinced, so they have been dragging out time. It seems to realize that the three parties are constantly training frantically, Wuhan and Beiyang are also crazy about buying weapons, those Western arms dealers are laughing happily, Qin Yu is frantically training government managers, Anqing University, China First Military Academy, and China Lanxiang Technical College are recruiting talents on a large scale.

The tripartite talks have been going on for 10 days without any progress, and there are war of words every day, and the people have also been divided into three factions, and they have been spitting on each other. In the end, under the intervention of the governors of the provinces, the call for federalism began to rise gradually, and it has been soaring, and soon there was a kind of federalism in order to reduce the casualties of soldiers and avoid war, and the implementation of federalism is the best argument, many so-called experts and professors have also stood up to explain federalism, and after understanding what federalism is, the people's call for federalism began to overshadow democracy, which is also what the provincial overseers want to see the most.

In fact, the federal system also has many drawbacks, which will allow those separatists to split the country openly, and in order to strengthen the control over all parties, there must be a strong central government, but which of the three parties will be this strong central government, the people are also fiercely arguing.

In the end, the three parties agreed to establish a federal state, and there were differences in the formation of the government and military affairs, Qin San felt that a unified central government and a unified military should be formed, and each government was elected, and the president had the highest commander-in-chief and political rights of the three armed forces, and the National Assembly and the Supreme Court were established to implement the separation of powers; Yang Du believes that the Beiyang government should be the central government; Song Jiaoren believes that they can do a better job of democracy.

They both insisted on their opinions and soon suspended the talks again, as they were again mired in endless arguments and had to wait a while to resume the talks.

Qin Yu was also very helpless when he learned that he wanted to implement the federal system, which was easy to say, but no one was willing to give up his rights, and it was such a dilemma to negotiate a hundred times like this, so only a strong force could implement such a system by sweeping through various forces.

Qin Yu didn't want to care about this now, because his warships and submarines were about to return to China, and he was busy arranging the things that the navy would accept.
