Tongzhou, the camp of the right army of Wuwei.

The messenger arrived at the camp early, but after waiting for half an hour, no one came out to greet him. The sentry was expressionless, the bullet was loaded, and the heavy machine gun was mounted and pointed outward, no matter how the fourth-rank master and the famous eunuch in the palace coerced and lured, and resolutely refused to give way.

At the same time, in the main hall of the government office in the center of the camp, dozens of officers surrounded Yuan Shikai, who was sitting in the first place with his head bowed, and quarreled with each other.

"My lord! Can't wait any longer, the news in the palace is clear, they want to dismiss our messenger and swallow the elite soldiers you have worked so hard to train in one bite! โ€

"I said a long time ago that the Manchus can't trust us Han people at all. When you can use it, you don't have to pay for it lightly; When it comes to the critical moment, he immediately turns his face and denies people! What a special Manchu and Han integration, I'm phew! โ€

"Now that the imperial court is exhausted, the Manchu Dynasty can't pull out a useful person. They did this because they were afraid that we would have the upper hand completely! It's just that I expect us to be loyal ministers like Zeng Wenzheng and Li Hefei, hehe, but Lao Tzu doesn't do it! โ€

"In my opinion, don't talk nonsense with them, while the big guys are here, simply, let's discuss it on the spot anyway, overturn his king and eight nests with one shot, and attack the capital to pull it down!"

"Are you going to vote for Yang Dingshina? Beware of the horse's fart slapping on the donkey's paddle, making a person who is not inside and out! If the revolutionary army wants to take the capital, it can do it at any time. I can't wait until now and I can't make a move. There must be their intentions. Don't spoil other people's big things on the spur of the moment. It's not fun! โ€

"Hmph, you're just guessing. I don't believe it, there are still people in this world who don't want to take the capital, and change the world in a good name! โ€

"I don't have time to reason with such a vulgar and stupid bird as you, just your little knowledge, and wait to suffer! If you really want to make a mistake, don't drag the adults to drill into the gutter with us, and find a brick to hit you to death as soon as possible! โ€

"Your uncle! Believe it or not, Lao Tzu slashed you with a knife! โ€

"You try it?! Come, cut it at the door of the master's head. Chop doesn't bleed, you are the ...... raised by the little girl. โ€

Most of the young officers in their thirties are not of low rank, and their subordinates are rarely in command of several battalions. Counting upwards, anyone can hook up with relatives and friends with extraordinary backgrounds, and no one will obey anyone. This choked each other, and in three or two sentences, they teased the real fire, and they were about to perform all martial arts live when they showed their arms and sleeves.

Xu Shichang and Tang Shaoyi and other civilian cronies did not listen to the persuasion, but they couldn't beat this group of martial artists who usually danced with guns and sticks, so they stomped their feet in a hurry.

Yuan Shikai finally couldn't listen to it anymore, and suddenly grabbed the tea bowl and smashed it with a "snap"! The piercing sound and the fluttering porcelain shards startled everyone. The noise came to an abrupt end.

The black face that had been looking at the face of the feet for half an hour was raised, and Sen's cold gaze swept over the faces of the officers one by one. Everywhere you go. No matter how arrogant and bluffing he was just now, he put away his temperament and honestly lowered his head and shut up.

Yuan Shikai pulled his fingers and scolded rudely: "It's all fucking noisy!" Lao Tzu is not dead yet, one or two are thinking of making ideas for Lao Tzu?! โ€

"Don't dare!"

"It doesn't mean that!"

The officers hurriedly relented and admitted their mistakes.

Yuan Shikai snorted coldly, and knocked on the table with his fingers "Bangbangbang" and said: "Don't forget, what the big guy eats and pulls it home is the grace of the court!" No matter how the emperor goes, we have to go on steadily! Blocking the Qin Cha outside and not letting him in, is that what a courtier should do? โ€

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Lei Zhenchun, the closest son of the family, shouted: "My lord, I can't! The imperial court is clearly trying to seize our military power, this is to force us to death! This Wuwei Right Army, but you pulled it up with one hand and one foot, just let it out, the big guy can't get through it in his heart! โ€

"That's right! We can't let them get away with it! From the beginning to the end, the imperial court didn't give a little useful support, why should they be given? โ€

Relying on several generations of people to follow the Yuan family, the "family generals" also shouted with each other.

Xu Shichang couldn't figure out what Boss Yuan meant, and hesitated to remind: "My lord, now that the general trend of the imperial court has gone, we might as well choose a clear path as soon as possible." โ€

Needless to say, the big guys understand that they just took advantage of the fact that they were all well equipped and joined the revolutionary army on the spot, and they might be able to have a good future.

Yuan Shikai showed a sarcastic smile on his black face, and shouted: "You guys think about things simply!" If you really want to do that, why should I wait until today! Okay, let's honestly go out with me to meet the chincha. โ€

Without waiting for his subordinates to be persuaded again and again, he pressed the table to prop up his fat body, and rushed out of the government office straight away from the crowd, striding out of the camp in front of the meteor's head.

The officers' cronies were confused, and couldn't guess what kind of medicine he was selling in the gourd, so they had to follow. After a short time, he took the Qin Cha and his entourage, who were dizzy from the sun outside, into the room, and set up the incense table, brushed and knelt down to respectfully accept the order.

The Qin Cha and the eunuchs didn't know what tricks they were doing, but they clearly saw the fierceness and unkindness in the eyes of the officers, and the murderous atmosphere made them tremble in fright, and they couldn't say anything. After stammering and quickly reading the holy decree, he didn't even dare to stay to eat, and left immediately as if he was fleeing for his life.

The holy decree praised Yuan Shikai for his good training and meritorious service in resisting the rebels, and he was promoted to the governor of Henan, and he was appointed as the right attendant of the military department. His cronies such as Xu Shichang, Tang Shaoyi, Zhao Bingjun and other civil servants also received rewards, and they were even assigned real posts in other provinces. All the military attaches have been promoted by one and a half ranks, but they have basically stayed in their posts, but they have all become deputy positions. Needless to say, the main position must be reserved for the Manchurians who are about to take over.

Seeing that Yuan Shikai actually accepted the order so happily, everyone was dumbfounded!

Xu Shichang was puzzled in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "My lord." Are you really going to take up your post in Henan? โ€

Yuan Shikai's eyes swept everyone. said lightly: "I do want to go back to Henan." But it's not about taking office, it's about disarming and returning to the field, and going back to the hometown to farm! โ€

"Huh?! How can this be done?! โ€

The officer, whose brain didn't turn fast enough, shouted anxiously, but Xu Shichang suddenly came back to his senses and exclaimed: "Your Excellency, this move is wonderful!" โ€

Seeing a group of old coarse people with blank faces, he had to explain patiently: "We have to fulfill the reputation of adults, and we can't be scolded as second-class ministers!" Even if the adults leave, you will be there. Are you afraid that you won't be able to control this Wuwei Right Army? โ€

can mix under Yuan Shikai's hands and become the backbone, there is no one who has a bad head, give him such a reminder, and he will react when he arrives. immediately patted his chest and packed the ticket: "Don't worry, my lord, in this world, no one can make our new army change color!" โ€

Yuan Shikai waved his hand modestly: "Don't say that, the right army of Wuwei is the army of the imperial court, and if the imperial court is there, you can't have a second statement." They all listened to the dispatch of the imperial court, so that they could protect their brothers and sisters. Don't let them fold at will. โ€

Lu Jianzhang and Cao Kun, the two old fritters, said with a smile: "You can rest assured, there will be no shortage of management and insurance!" We're going to make the new adults feel warm and loyal. โ€

Yuan Shikai laughed with satisfaction. Subsequently. He arranged for Xu Shichang and others to resign from their official positions, and went to the Tianjin Concession to be a public servant, and he drove lightly, and went straight to his hometown in Xiangcheng, Henan Province through Baoding on the same day.

The news of the change of commander of the Wuwei Army quickly spread throughout Beijing and Tianjin, causing a new round of sensation and discussion, Yang Hao couldn't help but praise when he heard the news: "Lao Yuan is worthy of a generation of heroes, this ability to be good at speculative drilling is really admirable!" โ€

After Li Jingfang got the news, he felt that Lao Yuan was a rare talent, and rushed over to discuss with Yang Hao, planning to draw Lao Yuan into the revolutionary army. But when I heard Yang Hao's statement, I was confused.

Yang Hao unceremoniously unveiled Yuan Shikai's intention of killing birds with one stone and retreating as advance: "Lao Yuan clearly saw that the general trend of the Manchu Qing Dynasty had gone, and it was not far from complete defeat, so he dismissed and resigned from the donkey, which is all the kindness of the Qing court to him for these years of wealth and wealth." But he could stay in his hometown and secretly control the officers who had been picked up in one hand, and ensure that the troops always obeyed his orders. When we completely overthrow the Manchu Dynasty, we can take refuge in it anyway, and by the way, sell all the Manchu Dynasty under our protection to us. You say, did we have to admit their love at that time? โ€

Li Jingfang felt that his brain was a little insufficient. When it comes to the strategy of fairness and fairness, his level is among the best in contemporary times. But playing this kind of twisting and turning means is far worse than Yuan Shikai and other natural heroes.

However, after thinking about Yang Hao's words deeply, he quickly came back to his senses, so it was.

Yuan Shikai is actually the same as Li Hongzhang in some aspects, he doesn't want to be poked in the backbone and scolded as a second minister who "betrays the lord and seeks glory". Therefore, before the official fall of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it was impossible for them to come out openly to do things for the revolutionary army.

However, they can't come by themselves, but they can arrange for a large number of cronies to secretly pave the way for their advancement first. Not to mention Li Hongzhang's qualifications, being a prime minister is more than enough, and the qualifications are there.

Yuan Shikai and Wen can let Xu Shichang and Tang Shaoyi join the two parties that are in the limelight but lack strong talents; On the military side, there are a large number of young officers who have gathered together the elite of the contemporary generation, and when the time comes, they will join the revolutionary army, which is also short of personnel, and it will not be difficult for them to get ahead with their talents.

A few years later, the general trend will be settled, and a large group of civil ministers and military generals with real power in their hands will be backed by, and Yuan Shikai, who stays in his hometown to raise hope, can go out of the mountain in a high-profile manner, and no matter which party he joins, he can get extremely high support. With the skills of Tan Sitong and Yan Fu, the two party leaders, they can't play him at all!

Only Yang Hao can temporarily suppress this person with the golden finger of history, but it is also difficult to prevent this person from climbing to a high position openly.

In the final analysis, Yuan Shikai is playing yang conspiracy, and if Yang Hao wants to lead by example to order the world, he can't play a trick to kill this ambitious genius politician in advance. Besides, Lao Yuan's talents are rare after all, and it's a pity to kill him.

Thinking about this, Li Jingfang couldn't help but sigh: "This person is worthy of a generation of handsome masters, no wonder my father attaches so much importance to cultivation." โ€

Yang Hao also admires Li Hongzhang's vision very much, and he can discern the British from countless talents in Beiyang, and boldly push Yuan Shikai, who is in his twenties, to the position of the emperor of Goryeo, which is really not an ordinary mind. As for historical limitations or something, that's another story.

Li Jingfang immediately thought of the drastic changes brought about by this incident. worried: "As it is. The Qing court couldn't wait to gather military power and seize the troops. I'm afraid I want to save my strength and avoid it for the time being. Once they leave the capital, we must occupy it to ensure that there will be no chaos. It's just that in this way, I'm afraid it will cause people's hearts to fluctuate! โ€

It was easy for the revolutionary army to take the capital, and the reason why it was delayed in marching was because it was afraid of the "yellow robe" incident. Yang Hao didn't want to be forcibly put on the throne of an empty emperor just after the revolutionary cause had just begun, which would completely disrupt the grand plan to comprehensively change the entire nation.

Previously, the Qing court held on to the capital. He still has an excuse to say. But once the capital was ceded, the revolutionary army could not remain indifferent.

In this regard, Yang Hao had a very clear understanding, and he replied word by word: "I, don't enter the capital." โ€

Li Jingfang's heart was shocked, and he stared at Yang Hao for a full minute, and blurted out: "What a person who doesn't enter the capital!" Mr.'s mind is enough to be a model for the world! Sir's move is a great blessing for hundreds of millions of compatriots! โ€

Anyway, he's dressed up. solemnly bowed to Yang Hao to the end.

Li Jingfang had to admire, you must know that Yang Hao's prestige today achieves status and strength. If you want to take advantage of the situation to ascend to the throne of the emperor, no one can stop you. In the more than 2,000 years of China since then, which heroic and handsome man who rebelled or changed the dynasty did not want to sit on the throne of the emperor and pass on the hegemony of his family and the world from generation to generation?

Yang Hao is young, but he can withstand such a huge temptation, which is really commendable!

Li Jingfang's dedication to the revolution was to believe in the national righteousness preached by Yang Hao, and to completely abolish the old system of thousands of years of Chinese emperors and generals abusing the people, and truly realize the equality and liberation of the whole nation. But at the same time, he was also worried that when that day came, it would become a drama of changing imperial power by selling dog meat on the head of a sheep.

Yang Hao's words were equivalent to reassuring him! The revolutionary army will not change color, the revolutionary cause will not collapse in the middle of the road, and all his trust and dedication will not be given up halfway, and the pearl will be secretly invested!

Yang Hao couldn't sit there arrogantly and let people pay homage, so he quickly jumped up and hugged him. Looking at the eyes of the other people around him with infinite reverence, I was secretly ashamed. In the final analysis, he is not without that kind of ambition that is unique in the world, but he has never crossed the moral boundaries and mission responsibility.

Li Jingfang's heart fell to the ground, his spirit became more and more vibrant, and he immediately thought of all the important questions in the follow-up, and said: "Since the Qing court has the intention of retreating, we might as well take the initiative to force them to leave quickly, so that we can protect countless state property to the greatest extent." It's just that this matter is very important, and it needs a dedicated and responsible person to complete it. Who do you think is more appropriate? โ€

The capital has gathered countless treasures accumulated by successive dynasties, and the entire Forbidden City and those official residences and palaces are all accumulated by the people's fat and people's ointment, and they cannot be swept away or destroyed by the Manchu Dynasty.

Of course, Yang Hao refused to let those vampires continue to waste their precious wealth, and nodded in agreement at the moment: "You can mobilize all the forces deployed before and make preparations." As for the specific person in charge of this, it is best for you to go. โ€

"Me?" Li Jingfang glared at Yang Hao to make sure that he was not joking, and a hot current surged in his heart. This is to push the glorious moment that can be recorded in history to him to shine!

Rao is a person who is already forty years old, and after experiencing countless storms, he is still excited, and nods solemnly: "Okay, I promise to take down an intact capital!" โ€

When the matter was decided, the revolutionary army immediately moved vigorously. Yang Hao sat at the Tianjin General Headquarters, and Li Jingfang served as the commander-in-chief of the operation to take over the capital, leading the two infantry divisions in Beijing and Tianjin to suddenly press the Wuwei Right Army, which had just changed its head.

Before the newly appointed head of the town, Tieliang's ass was hot, he was forced to gather troops in a hurry to meet him. He had the intention to take the fifty or sixty thousand troops to fight a tough battle face to face, but after all, he had just come up and couldn't convince the public, and no one listened to him in a group of officers and soldiers promoted by Yuan Shikai. In addition, the order of the imperial court is to use these soldiers and horses to ensure the safety of the imperial court's western hunting, and if you are not sure, you can't send them to the front line at will!

They did not want to fight, but the revolutionary army refused to give up, not only mobilized artillery to bombard the Tongzhou defense line, but also sent elite troops to forcibly pass through Guรฒ and rush straight to the capital. At the same time, as many as a dozen huge and amazing airships and hot air balloons appeared in the sky above the capital together, making a posture of airborne combat at any time.

The rumbling cannons, the threat that can be seen when you look up, but it frightened the Qing court! The officials and nobles who tied up their belongings early didn't say a word, and dragged their families out of the capital, some went straight to the mouth through Xuanhua, and some went directly to Shanxi through Fangshan Lingqiu, and the wolf bรจi fled unbearably!

The Empress Dowager Cixi and Emperor Guangxu also didn't care about their dignity and decency, so they all changed into civilian clothes and mixed in the palace maids and eunuchs, and fled to Xuanhua overnight under the protection of the Wuwei Zhongjun led by Rong Lu himself.

On the contrary, they had packed up countless treasures early on, and planned to continue to enjoy a luxurious life elsewhere. Unexpectedly, Yang Hao had already prepared, and countless lurking personnel appeared inside and outside the Forbidden City overnight, including guards, eunuchs, palace maids and officials, merchants, workers, citizens, and even foreigners, totaling thousands.

They have organized hundreds of action groups to work with major industry associations to maintain stability and stabilize the people's minds. There are also a large number of dart masters and armed guards who take the opportunity to mark out the treasures that the Qing court wants to take away, stop those who can be stopped, and keep those who can be kept, and absolutely not let them be allowed to take advantage of the fire to rob and make trouble wantonly.

Tie Liang retreated with his troops, and rounded around the city. Along the way, the Wuwei Zhongjun, with the children of the Eight Banners as the backbone, kept fleeing, and they fell apart before they reached the Great Wall. Yuan Shikai's henchmen did their duty, kept the establishment intact and always supported the left and right, and showed extremely excellent military qualities, so that the Empress Dowager Cixi and the emperor and others were very satisfied with their previous decisions.

On May 21, 1896, Li Jingfang led the Third Division of the Revolutionary Army into the capital, announcing the end of Manchu rule.
