Everyone present nodded, military spending has always been the largest head of the Republic of China, except for a few years during Yuan Shikai's reign, the balance of revenue and expenditure has been achieved in these years, the finance has been beyond the means, a large number of foreign loans have been relied on, borrowing more and more money, and the hole is getting bigger and bigger. What's even more infuriating is that it could have been possible to negotiate peace between the north and the south, but because Duan Qirui couldn't accept the conditions in the south, he sent troops to attack, and even if he fought, he couldn't help the southern army after fighting for so long.

"That being the case, it is time to elect representatives to negotiate peace with the South. Who does Yuchen think the north should choose to negotiate with the south? Xu Shichang asked.

"The candidates for the peace talks are discussed by the president and Premier Qian, that is, the war is interrupted, and the hole left by the Anfu department is too big. I think we should divide our troops into two routes, I will maintain military stability, first sweep away the worries north of the Yangtze River, and the president and prime minister will be responsible for maintaining stability in the market and peace talks between the north and the south. As for the funds saved by this armistice and disarmament, they will first be used to appease the localities, provide relief to the victims, meet the investment of existing educational institutions, and distribute salaries to government personnel. It's best for me not to come forward for this kind of thing, after all, it is a taboo for the country to use military personnel to interfere in this kind of affairs. The president and prime minister can deal with whatever is reasonable, and the Northeast Army is the strong backing of the central government. ”

Qin Yu sorted out his thoughts, and there were a lot of things in the gate. Qin Yu has only achieved military entry now, compared to grabbing important positions in various departments now, it is inevitably too ugly to eat. It is easy to cause a joint boycott of the civil and military officials in the Guan, and the government is not as good as the military, and Qin Yu cannot beat the officials in the Guannai to death with a stick. After all, there are still many capable officials like Xiong Xiling, even Xu Shichang, who is also a capable person, but he lacks a platform to play.

"It's so good, this time it can quell the chaos in Beijing, Yuchen has made great contributions, and after this turmoil, Yuchen will have to bear a heavier burden. I'm not too young for this old bone, and I'll have to find a time to retreat. Xu Shichang sighed and said.

"The president doesn't have to worry, the dissolution of the Anfu department has nothing to do with the status of the president, and frequent changes of presidents are not conducive to the stability of the country. Besides, during the president's reign, there was nothing at fault. Some measures have also been effective, but they cannot be implemented due to the constraints of the State Yuan. The North should not make the removal of the president a condition, although the central authorities are interested in peace talks. Three or two years later, when the central government has integrated the forces north of the Yangtze River and walked through the financial predicament, it will be reunified. It is several times stronger than the current situation. Qin Yu said seriously, "As for all of you here, you can also convey the president, the prime minister, and my meaning to various departments." It is inevitable that the Anfu Congress will be dissolved to dispel the resentment of the south, but if it contributes to quell the market this time, it will be a credit to the country. Even if I was in my hostile faction before, I could tolerate it, and I would not kill a boatload of people with a stick, and the premise of stability was to be stable. Those who are capable, those who have merit, the country is in need. For example, those who have factional views, make mistakes in major events, and rely on their identity and status. The central authorities will not tolerate it. ”

Yuchen is right, this time the presidential office and the State Council will join hands to maintain national stability and rectify the rule of officials. For those black sheep, Yuchen is in charge of Beijing, and there is no need to worry about anything, so after a few years of rectification, the Republic of China is hopeful. ”

Xu Shichang was overjoyed when he heard this, if Qin Yu can really be so generous, it will definitely be a great thing for the Republic of China, I don't know if a few words in what Qin Yu is saying now are true, but since he can guarantee in public that he, the president, will not be affected by the dissolution of the Anfu Congress, then there is basically no problem. So far, Xu Shichang can be regarded as knowledgeable, with soldiers in his hands, he is stronger than anything else, and now there is no one in the entire north that can threaten Qin Yu's forces, if Qin Yu protects him, the position of this president will be as stable as Mount Tai.

The people present, including Qian Nengxun and others, were also very relieved in their hearts, from now on, Qin Yu is still easy to speak, powerful and not domineering, at least ten million times stronger than Xu Shuzheng.

"Governor Xiong, please stay." After ending this meeting, Xiong Xiling only took a few steps before being stopped by Qin Yu behind him.

"I heard about Yu Shuai's arrangement for Xiang Province just now, and I am now like an arrow, and I actually forgot to thank Yu Shuai, which is really a sin." Xiong Xiling's face was ashamed, and he hurriedly apologized to Qin Yu and said, in view of the fact that the current shape is not good, under Qin Yu's construction, Xu Shichang and Qian Nengxun were both present, so they made a special case and made a special appointment to Xiong Xiling on the spot. For this young man who is about the same age as his son, Xiong Xiling does not dare to despise him.

"It's okay, Governor Xiong is warm, if you are a procrastinator, the governor of Hunan will not choose you this time. There are so many things to talk about just now, and there are still some things to explain to you. Qin Yu said with a smile.

"Please also ask Yu Shuai to speak up, I will listen to you." Xiong Xiling said.

"The situation in Hunan Province is too chaotic now, if you don't have enough strength around you to protect it, it's really a bit uneasy." Qin Yu said.

"Please also ask Yu Shuai to be relieved, I still have a bit of a reputation in Hunan Province, no matter how arrogant the local powerful faction is, I will not dare to do anything to the governor." Xiong Xiling smiled confidently.

"It's okay, I said before that within two years, the Northern Army will not enter Hunan Province, and it will be done, but if the local powerful factions in Hunan Province refuse to listen to the orders of the central government, you can tell them that Wu Peifu can subdue the Hunan Army, and the Northeast Army can do the same. Hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed in Hunan, and it is not a small number for people to eat horses and chew, so there must be a shortage of food in Hunan Province. Prices are expensive. On the issue of grain, I will arrange that within half a month of Governor Xiong's appointment, the first batch of 20,000 quintals of grain will be in place, as well as some educational equipment, pen, ink and paper that will be transported from the northeast. Books and textbooks, printing presses, etc., worth about 100,000 yuan, which are from the Northeast. After the central government's fiscal revenue is in place next month, it can also support 300,000 yuan in Hunan, and now the stall is too big and there are many things to do. Stabilize the situation in Hunan. ”

"Yushuai can enter Beijing, which is a blessing for tens of millions of people in Hunan and a blessing for the country." Xiong Xiling solemnly saluted Qin Yu again, Qin Yu didn't say much, but he took care of the most important points, if he was alone, Xiong Xiling was conceited and had some prestige, relying on a civil official. There's only so much you can do.

"Governor Xiong doesn't need to be like this, for the rejuvenation of the nation. I was fed up with the anger of Lao Maozi and the Japanese in the Northeast, and I experienced dozens of assassinations by Lao Maozi and the Japanese in the Northeast. It's still intact, not because of my life, but because of the lives of my soldiers. Lao Maozi's holiday, I can be considered to have found some back, this Japanese. In the future, I still count on the children of the Hunan army to join this war, raise troops for a thousand days, and use them for a while. I am now worthy of the people of Hunan Province. It is also hoped that the people of Hunan Province can put aside their previous grievances and work together for the prosperity of the country. Qin Yu smiled indifferently.

Xiong Xiling looked at Qin Yu's back as he left, his Adam's apple surged, and the people present were not blind, they could see the exhaustion on Qin Yu's face. originally thought that Qin Yu, as the victor of this Anhui War, would appear in front of everyone with a victor and a high and excited attitude. But the facts are completely opposite to what he imagined, Qin Yu is here, but not to show off the strength of the Northeast Army, the first thing he did when he arrived in Beijing was to quell the war between the north and the south, and to avenge the grievances of tens of millions of people in Hunan. Hearing Qin Yu's words at this time, Xiong Xiling could feel that the young blood in his heart seemed to be surging again, even if the war was endless and there were flames everywhere, there was no shortage of people like him who struggled to save the situation.

Fengtian has a lot of industries, Qin Yu did not go to those big restaurants, but chose to stay in a courtyard near Beiyuan, close to the 27th Division, and these subordinates can also worry a little less.

………………

Before the outbreak of the Anhui War, Duan Qirui appointed him, the commander of the Yangtze River, replaced Zhang Jingyao as the Hunan overseer, but compared with before, the current Hunan overseer is not a good errand, the southern army has occupied Changsha and Yuezhou, and it is obvious that Hunan will not be ceded away.

At this time, the battle in the north is also related to his future, but Duan Qirui has been defeated and left Tianjin, how can he have time to care about him, a guy thousands of miles away.

"Is there any new message coming from Beijing?" Wu Guangxin paced outside the house and asked the adjutant impatiently.

"Commander, not yet, in addition, the governor of Hubei Zhanyuan invites you to go to the palace to discuss the war against the south."

"Didn't you already say it yesterday, why do you want to go over today, this Granny Wang, I don't know what idea he has in his heart." Although he complained, Wang Zhanyuan had been the overseer of Hubei for several years, and he was added as the landlord of this land, which was not comparable to him, the newly appointed overseer of Hunan. On other people's turf, there is no strength to play tricks.

Feeling that this mother-in-law Wang was troublesome, Wu Guangxin straightened his military uniform and rushed to Wang Zhanyuan's residence in a sedan chair.

"Come on, come on, Zitang, the wild duck that the soldiers just brought from the mountains has a unique taste, and you can't forget it." Wang Zhanyuan enthusiastically pulled Wu Guangxin into the table, there were only the two of them on the table, and Wu Guangxin felt a little weird. But without much thought, he sat down peacefully.

At the beginning of the banquet, Wang Zhanyuan and Wu Guangxin called him brothers, very enthusiastic, chatting about a lot of topics, even Adjutant Qiu, who had already prepared outside the house, couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart about this Wang Zhanyuan, sure enough, it was Granny Wang, who wanted to take down Wu Guangxin, and went directly to get his gun, and put it down, where do you need to waste so much effort? His mother-in-law is good at wine and meat, and these soldiers outside are a little anxious to wait.

"Now that the southern army is strong, Wu Ziyu has withdrawn the army, and the main force of this operation is missing, and Fan Guozhang has also withdrawn his troops now, and he doesn't want to fight anymore. If Beijing doesn't send reinforcements, I don't think Hunan will be able to get in. Wang Zhanyuan said, "Brother Zitang has always been a confidant of Supervisor Duan, I don't know what happened to the north side?" Is there a message for supervision? ”

"Duan supervised the training of 100,000 troops, the participating troops are well-equipped, the troops are abundant, although the Feng army has the reputation of being good at fighting, how can it be the opponent of Duan supervision, I have received a telegram from Duan supervision, go north today, this Hunan can't enter, but it is going to enter Fengtian." Wu Guangxin naturally refused to fall into his prestige in front of Wang Zhanyuan, let alone let Wang Zhanyuan think that the Anhui system was weak, so he naturally said some big things.

"Really? I don't think so. The smile on Wang Zhanyuan's face suddenly became gloomy.

"Why did Chun Shuai say this?" Wu Guangxin's heart jumped, looking at Wang Zhanyuan's face was not a good sign.

Wang Zhanyuan was not in the mood to continue the performance at this time, and with a clapping of his hands, a group of soldiers rushed in, fully armed around Wu Guangxin's body and sides.

"What does Chun Shuai mean by this, I am still the Hunan Overseer appointed by Supervisor Duan, if you deal with me now, you are not afraid that Supervisor Duan will clean up Fengjun and come back to trouble you?" Wu Guangxin was shocked and angry, but he didn't expect that the banquet prepared for him by Granny Wang turned out to be a Hongmen banquet.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for this day, that's it, I'll let you die, Northeast Yushuai has now been stationed in Beijing, more than 100,000 participating troops have been defeated, and now in addition to some scattered small units are still fleeing everywhere, most of them have been absorbed by the Northeast Army, Duan Supervisor and Xiao Xu don't know where to flee now, if you know each other and help me integrate your army, if he wants to punish you, the culprit of the Anfu system, I can also help you say two good words."

Wang Zhanyuan is exhausted. Since the outbreak of the Protector War, the situation in Hubei was also turbulent, the Ninth Division Li Tiancai, the Jingzhou Town Guard and Hubei First Division Shi Xingchuan, and the Hubei Third Division Wang Anlan formed the three-way Yasukuni Army, although Wang Zhanyuan extinguished the Yasukuni Army, but this battle greatly injured the vitality of the Hubei army, and Wang Zhanyuan, who was eager to replenish his strength, quickly set his sights on Wu Guangxin.

"Supervisor Duan is defeated? How is this possible? Wu Guangxin said with some disbelief.

"There is nothing impossible, the Feng army is famous for being able to fight, listening to Zhong Shuai on the Hebei side, the equipment is not inferior to the army participating in the war. Yu Shuai said it well, there are few of you in the Anhui system who can fight, from Duan Zhigui, Xiao Xu, to Zhang Jingyao, you will lose Duan wherever you go, there is not enough success, and there are more than failures. Even if the army in your hand goes north, it will be self-defeating, I think it's better to fill my Hubei army, come on, take Commander Wu down! "Although Wu Guangxin is also the nominal overseer of Hunan, he has not yet taken office.

"Yes, Dashuai!"

"In addition, send people to surround Wang Ruxian's troops, these are the family of the Hubei army, and they can't go anywhere." Wang Zhanyuan was in a good mood, and incorporated Wang Ruxian's Eighth Division, as well as Wu Guangxin's three brigades, and the strength of the Hubei army was almost restored.
