The first year celebration is a big event for the Chinese, and the old Yuan has always liked to work the articles on the scene, and he set the venue in Tiananmen Square, and the names of many streets and city gates in Beijing have been changed, but Tiananmen has not. Lao Yuan likes this name, and he is ordered by the heavens to stabilize the country and be auspicious.

The whole square is in a T-shape, and there is a river on the north side of the T-shaped side, and the five white stone bridges on the river are very beautiful. A little further north is the city wall, in the center of the city wall stands the tower of Tiananmen Square, on which the rostrum of the old Yuan ceremonies is set up, and the dignitaries of various countries and some dignitaries of China will stand here today.

Lao Yuan is a person who speaks very much about traditional Chinese characteristics, and this time the ceremony is the same, with eight red lanterns hanging high above the city tower, just like the joy of the New Year.

The T-shaped vertical extends south to Zhengyangmen. Chinese are famous for liking to join in the fun, not to mention that the morning newspaper exaggerated the victory of Kulun, not only the people of the capital are not willing to miss this grand ceremony, but also some people from other places, who have the conditions to find a way to come here to see. Moreover, I heard that President Yuan Da will personally walk along this street to Tiananmen Square today, and he will greet the people along the way, so there is no reason not to come.

With the experience of the last military parade, Beijing's local government is not so busy this time. They had already planned red lines on both sides of the street, and the common people could only stand outside the red line to watch the ceremony, and the houses on both sides of the street were temporarily requisitioned by the government to build simple stands. This makes it seem that although there are a lot of people coming, it seems that it is really not so crowded compared to the last military parade.

The time was almost up, Lao Yuan was making the final preparations at Zhengyangmen, from the window he could see the anticipation of the Chinese people, Yuan Shikai believed that when his footsteps walked out, the crowd immediately burst into unimaginable enthusiasm.

A slight smile unconsciously appeared on his face.

The entourage did a final inspection, from the situation outside to the inappropriate clothes on Yuan Shikai's body, they all carefully went through it again.

Lei Zhenchun hurriedly walked in from the outside and sent a telegram from Mongolia to Yuan Shikai: "President." Good news. Reports of battle came from the front, and at 5:40 this morning the Russians launched a counterattack against Kulen, and the Fifth Front, although it suffered some losses in the battle, was not driven out of the city by the Russians. Inside the city, there is now a confrontation between our men and the Russians. Zhang Zuolin has already sent troops to attack Kulun. Commander Yang telegraphed that our encirclement of the Akberliel Corps would begin immediately. ”

Lao Yuan was in a better mood after hearing this, and his eyes suddenly narrowed. I took the telegram and looked at it.

Yang Xiaolin briefly reported the battle plan, and the Fifth Front Army was able to hold a section of the Kulen area, so that the Akberlill Army could not get rid of the situation of being attacked on both sides, which made a very good fighter for the Chinese troops.

He planned to have the First Front draw 30,000 troops, the Second Front to draw 40,000 troops, plus the Fifth Front of the Kulen Uprising, to first encircle and annihilate the more than 40,000 Russian soldiers in the Kulen area, with the Far Eastern Army as the main force.

This is Yang's usual trick to fight ghosts, and when the opponent's forces are superior, he always likes to concentrate his forces to form his own advantages locally, knock out one point of the enemy, and shake the opponent's entire strategic deployment.

Lao Yuan also has a lot of trust in Yang Xiaolin's war now, and after reading it, he didn't even bother to point out anything: "Okay! Did Zhebuzun Danba have any reply? ”

Lei Zhenchun hesitated: "I asked someone to go to him this morning and told him all the conditions you offered, but although that guy didn't refuse us, he didn't agree, depending on what he meant, he probably wanted to wait and see." ”

Yuan Shikai's eyes were cold, revealing a fierce light. Zhebu Zundamba is a little ignorant, Lao Yuan now finds him to give him conditions, because the war is still going on in Kulun, Yuan Shikai hopes that those Mongolian armed forces will stand on his side at this time, so that not only will it have a great political impact, but militarily speaking, if Zhang Xun and Zhebu Zundamba both revolt, the Mongolian armed forces on the battlefield will all fall to their side, and the comparison of Chinese and Russian forces will change dramatically.

Even if Zhebu Zun Danba said that he would not help each other, it would be good, although the combat effectiveness of the Mongolian puppet army was limited, but the more than 200,000 guns were real. Let them withdraw from the battle, Yang Xiaolin will have a lot less scruples.

"It looks like he won't look back until he reaches the south wall! Zhenchun, you arrange it immediately, if he doesn't know each other, see if any of his subordinates are willing to kill him for us. ”

Lei Zhenchun said: "Yes, I want to go to Mongolia in person, it will be more convenient to do that, you see?" ”

Lao Yuan glared at him, waved his hand and said, "No! There's a lot more to do here, you don't know what we're going to do soon, don't always think about your own good! ”

Lei Zhenchun was overwhelmed by his words, and Nuo Nuo retreated. Yuan Shikai didn't continue: "How did you prepare for the things I asked you to do today?" ”

Lei Zhenchun hurriedly said: "It's ready, people are not far in front of Tiananmen Square, and when you arrive, they will rush out and shout grievances." And the reporters have also dotted up, you can rest assured, the news will definitely spread early tomorrow morning. ”

Lao Yuan was very satisfied: "Don't make too much trouble, tell those newspapers, this matter should be fried slowly." ”

He said and tidied up the sleeves of his Hanfu, and looked at the wall clock as if it was time to go out: "Remember what I said, what we are going to do this time is Sun Wen, Sun Wen is not terrible, what is terrible is democracy!" ”

Lei Zhenchun responded: "Yes." ”

Lao Yuan knows very well that Mr. Sun Wen has nothing in China, and from the beginning to the present, what he is most afraid of is that Sun Wen and Yang Xiaolin will join forces to deal with him, and then things will be a bit bad. However, as Yang Dagui led his troops north, from all indications, this possibility did not seem to exist. Then Sun Wen has nothing to fear.

The point is that democracy is a difficult trend of thought to deal with.

After the revolution, democracy has become a desire that many people have embraced and want to fulfill. If you forcibly strangle yourself. Lao Yuan is sure that things will not end easily. The stronger the means of suppressing democracy are, the stronger the resistance will be, and if we do not do it for a period of time in the future, it will have an extremely adverse impact on ourselves.

Lao Yuan cares about reputation, so he must take his time and make people feel that the democratic system is not suitable for China, and when this goal is achieved, Mr. Sun will be out of play.

And if you want to make people feel that democracy is not suitable for China step by step, the first condition is that Yang Xiaolin cannot come back! Although he is very bad with Sun Wen now, that guy is in Beijing. Lao Yuan was not at ease.

"Send a telegram to Commander Yang. Let's just say that I am in a very good situation here, and I will help him deal with the protests of the Russians, so that he can fight with peace of mind! He can fight with peace of mind, so that I can do things with peace of mind! ”

Lao Yuan's telegram soon reached Yang Xiaolin's hands. After reading it, he smiled slightly. Give the telegram to Cai Ye and put it away. Yang Xiaolin always couldn't figure it out. Why did Yuan Shikai always think that he really didn't want to get involved in politics?

If he really never cared about politics, how could he exist as a supreme leader in the northeast as an army commander to this day? A general can be a qualified general if he doesn't understand politics, but a commander can be a qualified general if he doesn't understand politics. is definitely not a qualified commander.

Forget it, let him think for himself what Lao Yuan thinks, this is also an illusion he wants to create.

"How's the situation on Cullen's side now?"

"Zhang Dewu has sent a telegram, the combat effectiveness of the Fifth Front Army is very poor, and the military discipline is scattered, they are now supported by the strength of the commando, fortunately, Zhang Xun blew up the arsenal of Akeberil, the Russians have no heavy artillery available, and the Russian army in Kulen has fallen into passivity. This is the current situation on the battlefield, and neither side can help anyone, so it depends on whether Zhang Zuolin's attack can make any breakthrough. ”

Cai Yi gave a general description of the situation, and after the Russians carried out an attack on the rebel troops this morning, it is estimated that it will not have much effect. Even if Zhang Xun's combat effectiveness was really difficult to compliment, when they knew that they had no way back, and knew that the First Front Army had begun to advance towards the Kulun attack, their combat awareness was still good.

Dare to fight, dare to fight.

With the Russians lacking ammunition, it was difficult to achieve any brilliant results against the Fifth Front, which was protected by armored forces.

Of course, Yang Xiaolin didn't expect Zhang Xun and the others to kill Akberil and recover Kulen for himself. They can open a gap is very good: "Songpo, I think the current Zhebuzun Danba troops are the key, the second side of the troops before the battlefield, Zhang Zuolin may not be able to make any breakthrough progress against Kulen in the face of the strong attack of the Kizerosky Corps, at this time, the position of the Mongolian armed forces will bring us great benefits." ”

Cai Yi nodded: "We have contacted Zhebu Zun Danba many times, and his attitude is still unclear, and he has not replied to Yuan Shikai, Commander, this job is not easy to do." ”

Yang Xiaolin thought for a while, and his eyes turned around on the map: "You say, if we attack him now, he will do it?" ”

Cai Yi was stunned after hearing this, he knew that only the Fifth Front Army had this condition to attack those Mongolian armed forces, but first of all, it was uncertain whether Zhang Xun could defeat Zhebuzun Danba, even if he could fight, in case these Mongols who were still wavering were forced to hurry, and simply followed the Russians, things would be troublesome.

"Commander, think twice."

Yang Xiaolin really thought about it for a long time, his fingers kept tapping on the table, and after more than ten minutes, his brows slowly relaxed, and he made up his mind to the following: "Continue to contact him, and the conditions can continue to talk!" But the attack on him must also be launched immediately, and I want to show him that we have the guts to fight the Russians at the same time as they fight! At the same time, I would like to know what kind of capital he has to bargain with us. ”

Cai Ye didn't say anything more, what kind of effect would it have if he hit those Mongol armed forces? Now he really can't tell. But it's okay to fight, just like Yang Xiaolin said, see what capital you have to respect Danba. (To be continued......)
