426. Lives should be chased away
On July 1, 1913, a son of Sun Yuanqi who had a special significance. Visit to download TXT//
On this day, Sun Yuanqi took advantage of the brief calm before the storm to take the oath of office as the premier of the State Council of the Republic of China. Of course, this lull is only relative. Just before Premier Sun and Sun's cabinet were newly released, two things happened that seemed to be isolated, but in fact they echoed and complemented each other.
The first thing was that Yuan Shikai officially replied to the telegram of the four governors of the Kuomintang in the south. In the article, he first refuted the crimes denounced in the telegram of the Four Governors, and then pointed out that the state had spent a lot of money since the Ding Revolution, but the local government had withheld taxes, and that there were still few people who responded to the repeated urgings, resulting in the current arrears of reparations and foreign debts amounting to 12 million pounds, and they had to borrow money to keep the country running, not to buy guns to prepare for civil war. If Jiangxi, Hunan, Guangdong, and Anhui provinces can volunteer to take the initiative to take on this debt and repay it in installments, zhongyāng will suspend the loan!
Immediately, the article changed its course, denouncing the four governors for their unwillingness to pay taxes in advance and alleviate the country's difficulties; did not dare to stand up and take on the national debt; Afterwards, he could not be of one heart and one mind, sympathetic to zhongyāng's good intentions, but deliberately bewitched the public, fabricated words, and attacked and slandered zhongyāngzhèngfu, as if he was afraid that the country would not die and die quickly! How can this move be worthy of the dead martyrs, the soldiers of the uprising, and the people of the whole country? If the country goes bankrupt because of the suspension of borrowing, I am afraid that the four governors will not be able to escape the blame.
Furthermore, the governors of the provinces are active officers and have the obligation to obey their superiors absolutely; The provincial civil governors are the chief executives, and they are also obliged to obey the orders of the zhongyāng. Now that the four governors and civil governors are ignoring Zhongyāng's directives, they are instigating their colleagues to confront Zhongyāng, and the country is in danger.
Hunan Governor Tan Zuan (Tan Yanmin) has always understood righteousness, but this time I am afraid that he was forced by the villain, not his own heart; Yue Governor Hu Zhantang (Hu Hanmin) is located in the sea frontier, and there is no news. Maybe there was a misunderstanding; As for the Anhui Governor Bai Liewu (Bai Wenwei) and the Gan Governor Li Xiehe (Li Liejun), the two of them are in a nearby province, and the telegram is close to each other, so they should know everything about the beginning and end of the loan, but I don't know why they want to make this fallacy? If you should know but don't know, you should not occupy this high position, so as not to delay the affairs of the state; If you know and pretend not to know. I don't know what kind of heart is in the belly!
- Obviously, Yuan Shikai has made up his mind to divide and disintegrate, and to attack from afar and closely, he fights and pulls Guangdong and Hunan, which are beyond the reach of the whip, and tears his face and tears his face to the two provinces of Anhui and Jiangxi on the sword, with an aggressive posture!
As for the second thing, it's a bit strange.
The incident started when a female student from Tianjin named Zhou Yujun suddenly went to the gendarmerie of the Gyeonggi Military and Political Law Enforcement Department to turn herself in, claiming that she had been deceived before. He joined the assassination group "Blood Light Group" organized by Huang Xing, and was recently instructed by Huang Xing to infiltrate Beijing, intending to set bombs to kill dignitaries, in order to achieve the goal of subverting and causing a riot. But then she thought about it and felt that it was too cruel for her compatriots to kill each other, so she turned herself in to atone for her sins. At the same time, she also reported on the location of the bomb. After the gendarmerie learned the news. Immediately sent the army to search, and sure enough, a number of arms were found, and several rebels were arrested.
As soon as the news came out, everyone inside and outside the capital was suddenly in danger, and even Cheng Ziyin, who was far away in Gansu, sent a telegram asking Sun Yuanqi to strengthen Jingwei, so as not to be plotted by the Blood Light Regiment.
According to the confession of the "head of the women's assassination group", the head of the blood light regiment was Huang Xing, a great revolutionary man. The Treasurer is Senator Shet. Based on this confession, the Gyeonggi Military Administration and Law Enforcement Department quickly arrested Shet. The Běijing District Prosecutor's Office also quickly sent a document to the Shanghai side, summoning Huang Xing to Beijing to confront him, and the order was very strict, and there was no room for negotiation. The answer is obvious, when this is critical, Huang Xing is undoubtedly unwilling to venture north.
Things are strange, and the timing of Zhou Yuyu's appearance is just right. The Shanghai Special Court, which was previously in charge of hearing the assassination of Song Jiaoren, has been urging former Premier Zhao Bingjun to go south for trial in the form of documents; On the cusp of the storm, Běijing made such a strange thing, and the target was Huang Xing. However, the methods of the two are similar, and they are simply compatible. I can't help others not think about it!
According to Sun Yuanqi's own intelligence, the Kuomintang did send people north to assassinate them, and the target was indeed located as a dignitary, and the arrested Kuomintang senator Xie Teh was also closely related to the assassination team. But to say that this female student is the leader of the women's assassination team, she surrendered because of her conscience, and the head of the blood light group is Huang Xing, Sun Yuanqi will never believe it.
Obviously, Yuan Shikai also knew the above information to conceive this good scene, as the heroine Zhou Yujun is likely to be a childcare, the purpose is to lead out Huang Xing behind the scenes!
Sun Yuanqi was a little puzzled at first: you must know that since the assassination of Song Jiaoren, Huang Keqiang has always advocated solving the problem by legal means, which can be regarded as half of the pro-Yuan faction. According to reason, Yuan Shikai should have designated the murderers behind the scenes as Ju Zheng, Dai Jitao and other radicals who advocated armed confrontation, why did he target Huang Xing?
However, after thinking about it, it became clear: Yuan Shikai wanted to make the moderate faction in the Kuomintang have no way out, and force them to embark on the road of armed confrontation with the radical faction, so as to justifiably wave his troops to the Southern Expedition!
————
Throughout July, both the North and the South were in turmoil. And as the weather gets hotter, politicians get more angry and speak in a higher tone, and the dispute between the north and the south heats up.
Sun Yat-sen said more than once in speeches in various places in Shanghai: "This is the era of the republic, and everyone has the responsibility to maintain the republic." If someone has bad intentions and destroys the republic, the people of the whole country should unite to get rid of this thief, and it is absolutely not appropriate to tolerate and raise Jiān self-righteous relatives! ”
Yuan Shikai was not to be outdone, and said in semi-public: "The left is also a troublemaker, and the right is also a troublemaker." After working together for several years, the old man now finally sees through Sun and Huang, who have no other skills except to make trouble. Yuan is entrusted by 40,000,000 people, and he must not let others make trouble with the property and lives of 40,000 people! Although the old man is deaf and incompetent, he is confident that his political and military experience and diplomatic credibility are no less than others, and if they dare to organize another zhèngfu in the south, I will dare to raise troops to conquer. With the weight of the hope of the people of the whole country and the prestige of Beiyang Jingrui, although the chaotic party jumped off the beam and was arrogant at this time, the old man could not be eliminated with his strength! ”
Observers at home and abroad now understand that the question between the north and the south of China is no longer a question of whether or not to fight a war, but a question of when and to what extent.
On the one hand, Sun Yuanqi did everything he could to delay the start of the war, and on the other hand, he was also actively adjusting his military deployment to cope with the situation that might arise after the start of the war. In addition to Liu Mingzhao's 3rd Brigade of the 2nd Division of the Hubei Army moved to Changle and Hefeng on the border between Yichang Mansion and Hunan in Hubei, and Yin Changheng's 4th Brigade of the 2nd Division of the Hubei Army moved to Laifeng and Xuan'en on the border between Shi'en Mansion and Hunan in Hubei. Sichuan also moved to Youyang Prefecture with the strength of two brigades, and the troops were directed at Guizhou and Hunan.
In order to ensure that something happens, Sun Yuanqi also sent people to urgently build several temporary airfields in Yichang, Shinan, and Youyang, and ordered the First Brigade of the Northwest Air Force in Shaanxi and the Second Brigade of the Southwest Air Force in Sichuan to transfer to this area to carry out preliminary reconnaissance in the Hunan and Guizhou areas in front of them. Since the plane came to Changde and Changsha, the whole Hunan has been shaken, and Tan Yanhong, the governor of Hunan Province, has been even more shocked.
Wait until August. On the contrary, there were some signs of easing in the situation between the north and the south, because with the help of the revolutionary party and the connivance of Sun Yuanqi, the White Wolf Bandit Army in Henan actually raised the banner of "supporting the Han and fighting against the Yuan army" and cut off the Luhan line several times, completely blocking Yuan Shikai's footsteps to the south. As a close neighbor, Sun Yuanqi once "kindly" proposed to let the troops of Jin, Shaanxi, and Hubei around western Henan enter Henan to help encircle and suppress. However, he was politely declined by Yuan Shikai. - In these years, the most trustworthy is this kind of close neighbor. It's easy to please God, but it's hard to send God!
The disturbance of the White Wolf Bandit Army not only caused the local erosion in Henan, and the congressmen threatened to vote against Yuan Shikai, the president, but also disrupted all the original plans of the Beiyang Army. Yuan Shikai was angry, so he had to temporarily adjust his deployment, and ordered Ni Sichong's department, the Yi Army's Zhao Wei Division, and the Beiyang Second Division, which were originally the main force for attacking Anhui, and the Henan First Division and Henan Mixed Brigade, which were originally used as the reserve for attacking Jiangxi, to carry out a large-scale encirclement and suppression of the white wolf.
Although the strength of the White Wolf Bandit Army increased greatly after receiving thousands of old guns that Sun Yuanqi half-sold and half-sent. But in front of the well-trained and well-equipped Beiyang powerhouse, it was not enough to see at all, and could only barely rely on the speed advantage of mules and horses to flee for their lives. At this time, the revolutionaries in the White Wolf Army suggested: "Marshal, at present, there are many officers and troops in Henan, and the enemy is strong and we are weak, and it is difficult for us to gain a foothold here. For today's plan, the only way to save strength is to avoid others, and then kill back in the future! ”
"We were chased by Yuan Yuandan, and our legs ran thin, and we didn't find a place to stay. Where else can I go now? Bai Lang spit out a piece of chicken bone and said in an urn sound.
"Look, handsome. Let's go north to Shanxi, but we must cross the Yellow River, Yuan Shikai has long been there to defend it, and it is a dead end to go there. To the west is Shaanxi, Tongguan is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Sun Yuanqi is heavily garrisoned there, so we can't get through for a while. To the south is Hubei. Everywhere is either Sun Yuanqi's soldiers, or Yuan Shikai's soldiers, plus there is a tail in the back, once it is stopped, it will be a dead end. Now it seems. Only by going east can you survive! "The man had obviously studied military affairs and knew a lot about the terrain.
Hearing that there was a way to live, Bai Lang directly threw the roast chicken in his hand aside, and asked eagerly, "To the east?" Where to go east? ”
"Let's go to Anhui! Anhui Governor Bai Liewu is our revolutionary, the so-called 'revolution in the world is one', as long as we arrive in Anhui, we will be at home, and we can sit back and relax. When the time comes, as soon as the troops are reorganized, the marshal may really want to put on a military uniform and become a general! ”
"Adaptation? Let's not be Song Jiang! Bai Lang snorted coldly.
The man hurriedly smiled and said, "Then when the time comes, please ask Governor Bai Du to allocate a piece of land for the marshal in northern Anhui, and let the marshal come and go!" ”
"Humph! If the governor doesn't know anything, then Bai will take it himself! ”
After the agreement, the white wolf bandit army quickly abandoned the baggage and blew straight towards Anhui at a speed like a wind. Yuan Shikai was about to be furious when he saw the White Wolf Army escaping from the encirclement and suppression circle, but later saw that their target was Anhui, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered the various armies of the encirclement and suppression to directly enter Anhui in the name of suppressing bandits.
