In the eyes of everyone, Zhao Dongyun, who got off the train, was wearing a dark blue first-class winter dress of the Beiyang system, with a gold-plated and jade-inlaid command knife around his waist, but the rank mark on the shoulder, cuffs and neckline was not the previous sign of the golden dragon spitting out the pearl, but the yellow background gold star style rank mark that Fengjun had only recently changed.

After Zhao Dongyun got out of the car, it was Zhou Xuexi who came to greet him on behalf of Wang Yingkai, Duan Qirui and others, and saw Zhou Xuexi, who was wearing a Western-style tuxedo dress, walked over with a smile: "Commander Zhao, you can be regarded as coming, my legs are weak!" ”

"Huh!" On such a public occasion and in the presence of many reporters, Zhao Dongyun showed a standard politician-style smile, and then took the initiative to greet him and stretched out his hand: "Brother Zhou is polite, why did you come out in person, how can I do this!" ”

Looking at the situation of the two greeting each other, a large number of gentry and reporters who came to pick up the car also muttered in their hearts, looking at this, it seems that the peace talks are about to be completed!

After meeting Zhou Xuexi, Zhao Dongyun met Qin Longbiao and Zhao Chenliang and other people in Tianjin, and they estimated that they hadn't slept much in the past two days for their trip to Tianjin.

Due to the urgency of time, the negotiation time between Zhao Dongyun and Wang Yingkai was arranged very quickly, but under the urgency of time, the relevant arrangements could not be missing, not to mention anything else, just where did Zhao Dongyun live? How to arrange the hundreds of civil and military officials and guards soldiers he accompanied him, these are all things that need to be worried about one by one, and Zhao Dongyun came with so many private guards, although they are all dressed in the coat of police, but everyone knows that these are Fengtian soldiers, and how to avoid causing diplomatic disputes is also a troublesome matter.

Fortunately, the authorities of the British Concession in Tianjin were relatively clear, and they did not deliberately embarrass the Beiyang generals, but turned a blind eye and let them all come with a large number of security personnel.

Many of the above matters prepared for this negotiation need to be handled by Qin Longbiao and others, and Fuyuan Company has also given a lot of economic support, such as arranging for Zhao Dongyun and his entourage to stay, Fuyuan Company has directly contracted Li Shunde Hotel with a large amount of money.

Now that Zhao Dongyun is here, he naturally wants to say hello to these staff!

After hurriedly meeting his own staff, Zhao Dongyun took Li San to lead him to a small high platform on the square of the railway station!

Looking at the many people below who came to greet him, most of these people were young people, and most of them were young students.

Zhao Dongyun raised his head, looked around at the people in the audience, and then said loudly: "Before I came to Tianjin, someone asked me, what are you going to Tianjin for?"

And today, I can tell you that I came to Tianjin for nothing else, just for the republic of China!

More than ten years ago, Yuan Gong led us to train in a small station, and after the Xin Chou year, we went all out to implement the new policy, abolish the imperial examination, establish a new school, run a new army, and promote industry and commerce. In order to let my 40,000,000 Chinese people live a life of food and clothing, but the Manchu Dynasty murdered Yuan Gong by shameless means for their autocratic rule! ”

Zhao Dongyun's voice lowered when he said this: "At that time, someone sued me, Yuan Gong went, what else are you talking about the republic!" But among the tens of millions of Yuan Gongs among my Chinese people, if one Yuan Gong falls, there will be ten, and hundreds of thousands of Yuan Guilds will stand up, and then create my Chinese Republic again!

No one, no matter who he is, can stop us from realizing the reunification of the republic in China, and anyone who stands in front of us will inevitably be ruthlessly seen by history! ”

"Now there are a handful of national scum in the south, they have forgotten their own Yanhuang blood, forgotten the ancestral tablet in the ancestral hall, betrayed the country for their own glory and wealth, betrayed this nation, after we finally broke free from the foreign imperial system, they are wagging their tails and selling their souls, pushing this country and nation into the abyss again!

Now that tens of thousands of Chinese people in the southern provinces are suffering from the oppression of foreign imperial systems, they yearn for someone to bring them freedom and dignity, and in the face of the suffering of our compatriots, can we sit idly by?

No! ”

When he first came to Tianjin, Zhao Dongyun brought a head start to the domestic public opinion circle and even the domestic bigwigs!

In the face of the people to make public political speeches, this kind of thing is relatively normal in Western countries, but in China, especially in contemporary China, it is the first time, even Sun Wen and those revolutionary parties have not evolved to this Cheng dù, as for Wang Yingkai, Duan Qirui and others, although they are modernized soldiers, they are actually the same as Zhang Zhidong in their bones, they are all traditional bureaucrats, and they are usually high up, where they will contact the people and consider what public opinion.

However, Zhao Dongyun is not them, Zhao Dongyun, who has been suffering from lack of prestige, cares more about the propaganda in public opinion, after all, he can't be like Zhang Zhidong and them, relying on time to accumulate prestige, if he wants to improve his prestige within time, not to mention Li Hongzhang and Yuan Shikai back then, but at least they have to be comparable to Wang Yingkai, otherwise they will lead the army into the Beijing Division, and it is estimated that the people of the Beijing Division will ask: Who is Zhao Dongyun?

Nowadays, the rise of telegraphs and newspapers can make some important information quickly spread at home and abroad, so since the incident, Zhao Dongyun has sent a few telegrams when he has nothing to do, not for anything else, just to let more people know their names, let them know that in Beiyang, in addition to Yuan Shikai, who is already dead, there is also Zhao Dongyun.

Today's speech is also the product of a similar plan, just like the future generations who want to be famous and learn to catch a very famous person and scold him, the current Zhao Dongyun is directly aimed at Zhang Zhidong, and scolds the special code to brush his reputation.

Moreover, Zhao Dongyun's scolding is not to scold Zhang Zhidong for being bad or wrong, but to directly button up the hats of national scum and traitors, and then involve the sensitive words of republic and foreign monarchy, it is inevitable to arouse public opinion.

Zhao Dongyun just gave a speech in the morning, and several newspapers in Shanghai in the evening published Zhao Dongyun's speech!

Wang Yingkai in Tianjin looked at the full text of Zhao Dongyun's speech in the newspaper, and showed an obvious smile on his face, this Zhao Dongyun scolded people without any mercy, and spoke white and straight, it is estimated that the illiterate can know that Zhang Zhidong is a national scum.

The content of Zhao Dongyun's speech naturally catered to the interests of the north, regardless of Wang Yingkai or Duan Qirui, they all welcomed Zhao Dongyun to raise the banner against Zhang Zhidong, and the industrial and commercial class in the north and even the landlord class in the north did not have a good impression of the rebellion in the southern provinces, why, because they were all part of Beiyang.

The Beiyang system not only refers to the more than 100,000 troops in the seven towns of Beiyang, but this interest system can actually be said to be the interest system of the north, including the landlord class and the industrial and commercial class in the northern provinces, who are strictly speaking, supporters of Beiyang.

The historical Southern Revolutionary Party, or the current Southern Federation, was not backed by a Manchu emperor, but by the landlords and industrial and commercial classes of the southern provinces.

The struggle between Beiyang and the southern provinces is, in essence, a struggle between the interests of the north and the interests of the south, whether it is the revolutionary party represented by Beiyang represented by Yuan Shikai and Sun Wen in history, or the Beiyang represented by Wang Yingkai and Zhao Dongyun and the Southern Federation represented by Zhang Zhidong.

On the surface, they seem to be two different things, but in essence, they are all the same, just different coats!

In fact, this kind of competition of interests can be found from many industries under Fuyuan Company, such as in the textile industry, who is the biggest competitor of Fuyuan Textile Factory of Fuyuan Company? It's not the Japanese and the British, but the southern textile enterprises in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, especially the textile enterprises in Nantong.

Since 1904, when the Japanese cloth withdrew from the Northeast market, Nantong Native Cloth and Fuyuan Fabric were the biggest competitors in the Northeast market.

Then there is the cigarette market that has risen in recent years, Fuyuan Cigarette Company wants to enter the southern market, who is its biggest competitor? It is not a foreign-funded brand, but a domestically produced Nanyang cigarette company.

Even in the relatively weak domestic steel market, the biggest competitor of the affiliated steel plant of the Fuyuanji Qì factory is not foreign imported steel, but the Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant in Hubei, and the two fronts are fighting for orders for rails on many domestic railway lines.

The competition between industry and commerce, coupled with the division between the north and the south in the late Qing Dynasty for decades, made the northern and southern provinces have a sense of mutual disagreement.

Then these factors are pushed by the political turmoil, then it will quickly evolve into a civil war between the north and the south!

If the previous Beiyang Civil War was just a simple political struggle, then the current North-South Civil War has evolved into a war that combines economy and politics.

War is no longer simple!

Zhao Dongyun's speech received a very good response in the northern provinces, and even in the eyes of foreign revolutionary parties, Sun Wen even published an article in response, saying that there are still a few people in China who understand what the country and the nation need, of course, after saying this, he immediately changed his mouth, but it is still far from enough, and these few people are also blinded by power and desire, and need me, the revolutionary leader, to guide them, and also said that he is willing to be the introducer himself and invite Zhao Dongyun to join the League.

Sun Wen's various actions and remarks are relatively complex and controversial, but the various speeches and articles in his life can be summed up in one sentence: Except for me, Sun Wen, it is unacceptable who is in charge of China!

However, Zhao Dongyun's speech was resisted in the south, and many people were full of anger when they saw it!

"This junior is too deceitful!" Zhang Zhidong's beard is about to float up, he Zhang Zhidong has been in the government and the opposition for decades, although he has been scolded, but he has been scolded as a national scum and a traitor, and it is the first time to abandon his ancestors.

"He thought that he Zhao Suqian was a good thing, for his own selfish interests, he raised troops to enter the customs, if he hadn't entered the customs at the beginning, how could the northern provinces be miserable, and the people and merchants were miserable! And if it weren't for our Northern Expedition, it is estimated that he would still be fighting with Wang Yingkai and them for their own selfish interests! ”

Zhang Zhidong's words are not wrong, from these points of view, Zhao Dongyun is indeed not bad for the country and the people, and he is the kind that dirties the land when he dies!

However, the two sides scolded and scolded, but the business did not fall, this made a speech at the train station, and after brushing up his prestige, Zhao Dongyun sat with Wang Yingkai, Duan Qirui, Wang Shizhen, Xu Shichang, and Zhou Xuexi, and carried out peace talks that were enough to affect the fate of China in the future!
