"beep……"
Bang, bang, bang, with a whistle blowing, a train with only fourteen carriages left the Xizhimen platform. Different from common trains, there was no soot spewing from the locomotive of this train.
It looks like it just spits out some smoke from the roof. This is a diesel locomotive. It is the latest product of Lianyun Locomotive Company, but it is not currently popular in China.
However, many people in Beijing know that this "coal-free" locomotive belongs to the State Council. To be precise, it is the Prime Minister's special train. This is a special train purchased by the State Council after the Prime Minister was attacked. On the surface, this train
Except for the more advanced high-power diesel locomotive, it seems to be no different from an ordinary train, but in fact, this is an armored train. In addition to the specially modified diesel locomotive, each carriage has been specially improved to ensure
Passenger safety.
In addition to installing armored steel plates with thicknesses ranging from 15 to 25 mm in each carriage in accordance with the standards of armored trains, even the bottom of the carriages has an anti-explosion design, which has been carefully designed and carried out.
The "V" type explosion-resistant carriage, which was just obtained through a series of explosion tests, can protect the safety of passengers in the carriage to the greatest extent. Even if 150 kilograms of explosives explode under the carriage, relying on the explosion-proof design and the anti-explosion design at the bottom of the carriage,
The passengers in the carriage were only injured at most, but not necessarily seriously.
Even the ordinary-looking car windows are made of bulletproof glass up to 10 centimeters thick, and if necessary, armored steel plates can be raised behind the windows. In addition, each carriage uses a separate filter system.
The air conditioner keeps the carriage in a closed state. Even if it is attacked by poisonous gas, relying on air conditioning filtration can protect the passengers in the carriage from poisonous gas. It can be said that when designing this special train, the designers considered almost every kind of poisonous gas.
possible. Thus ensuring the safety of passengers in the carriage to the greatest extent.
At the same time, this train also has some unknown designs. Although it is known that there are two carriages specially used to carry the Prime Minister's motorcade. However, there are also three tanks in one carriage. If it is attacked on the railway,
, if the railway is destroyed, it will be difficult for even an infantry regiment or even an infantry division to capture the armored train relying on the on-board agents and the cooperation of the three armored fighting vehicles. Of course, the outside world has no way of knowing all this.
However, for the passengers of the train, they can enjoy the safest railway transportation in this era. When the flowers, trees and buildings on both sides of the train began to slowly recede, in a car with a somewhat luxurious decoration, a storage
The young man with a beard looked at the capital city outside the car, his brows furrowed from time to time. He stood there and looked out of the car without saying a word.
“Go to Tianjin!”
Thinking about his mission on this trip, Li Zicheng sighed deeply in his heart.
Why go to Tianjin at this time? Originally, it was planned to go to Tianjin on behalf of Yuan Shikai. But now Yuan Shikai suddenly ordered him to go to Tianjin. Will there be any changes?
There is no information from the Secret Service, but although there is no new information, it is known that Yuan Shikai's physical condition is not optimistic now. Has his condition worsened further? Why did he leave the capital?
For a coup?
Perhaps, I was worried that when the Yuan family saw off the expeditionary force, one of them was in Beijing and the other in Tianjin. The son would be detained by the expeditionary force, and then the father would launch a coup in the capital. But this possibility is not high.
, maybe Yuan Shikai's condition is not optimistic now, but because of his understanding of him, Li Zicheng knows very well that in this situation, he will not do this the less he does.
Compared with many historical figures, Yuan Shikai may be the most misunderstood historical figure. Yuan Shikai is similar to Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms. He was a capable minister in governing the world, but he could be a traitor in troubled times. And the ending of his life was determined by his choice.
, in fact, he is very similar to Cao Cao, Liu Yu, Yang Jian and others. According to the laws of traditional Chinese society, his future will also be to bring order out of chaos, unify China, and firmly occupy the title of Taizu of a dynasty.
However, history did not give him this opportunity, and he was a figure of the old school. He saw the inevitable direction of rebuilding authority for the extremely weak old China, but he did not use new names such as "teaching the government" and "dictatorship".
His brand of consciousness has led to his own path. If he had not proclaimed himself emperor, if he could be more politically wise, if he could see the situation clearly at that time, or even if he could live ten more years...
Unfortunately, history has no ifs. Because of this, in history, he was portrayed by the Tongmenghui princes as an extremely greedy thief. In people's eyes, he became a traitor who signed the "Twenty-One" and sought to become emperor.
Literary works over the past century, and even historical works, have become clowns who betrayed Tan Sitong. Although many people say: "These are possible!", in fact, anyone who has a little understanding of history can only regretfully say: "These are possible!"
Really not!".
In this era, even as a political opponent, Li Zicheng had to admit that in many cases, what Yuan Shikai did was for the sake of this country. Of course, most of the time it was in his own way. If he really was that
How could he support such an extremely greedy thief?
Without his support and the foundation he spent ten years of hard work laying in China, I am afraid that he would not have been able to achieve all this in just a few years. Now people only see "Li Guowu's achievements", how many people can understand
While sighing inwardly at Yuan's painstaking efforts, another thing appeared in Li Zicheng's mind.
Before leaving for the trip, it was mentioned in dual reports from the General Security Bureau and the Secret Service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs that in the past two months, the revolutionary party had raised funds by robbing banks and banks to prepare for an uprising in a southern province. Li Zicheng's
His face still looked worried.
Compared with Yuan Shikai, perhaps the Revolutionary Party is the "enemy of life and death", and the political disputes with Yuan Shikai are still controlled within the scope of "mutual tolerance". Yuan Shikai is a political enemy addicted to "powerful plots", "
It can be "powerful conspiracy" or "political conspiracy". They all solve problems within the political framework. But unlike the Yuan family, the Revolutionary Party is a group of outright thugs.
The butt determines the head, this saying has never been true. Perhaps, in the past, Li Zicheng admired many revolutionaries, but now, after the painful experience of almost having his house raided during the "Second People's Rebellion", the "Jiao'ao Incident"
"After learning the lessons of the revolutionaries' collusion with foreign enemies, and the revolutionaries' assassination of him, Li Zicheng has long lost any good impression of the Revolutionary Party. Even unlike Yuan Shikai, Li Zicheng believes that the Revolutionary Party is China's "century-old party"
The source of trouble."
For this reason, after taking office of the State Council, Li Zicheng would always do everything possible to suppress the Revolutionary Party. Unlike Yuan Shikai's suppression, he suppressed more fundamentally. While exposing their traitorous trip through public opinion, he also
Launching a million-person march to protest against the revolutionaries' betrayal of the country, the most fundamental point is to discredit them. For a political party and a politician, the most important thing is reputation, including foreign connections, collusion with foreign enemies, and betrayal.
The country, with all these crimes pressed, the chance of the Revolutionary Party turning around is very slim. Even in the United States, it warned Situ Meitang through some channels not to support it, and used diplomats to steal the support of overseas Chinese. In this
In this situation, what will the revolutionary party do?
Taking the risk to start a rebellion?
If you were the rogue American "revolutionary", what choice would you make when faced with this situation? Perhaps you would have to take the risk and launch a rebellion. Through an armed rebellion, you can tell the people through actions that the revolutionary party has not remained silent.
——The revolutionaries are still fighting!
What an eventful year it has been!
Frowning and thinking, Li Zicheng looked outside the car. At this time, the train had already left the city. Everything he could see was pure white. The snow that had fallen all day and night had already dyed the sky and the earth white, but who knew that this area seemed peaceful.
Underneath the holiness, there are so many undercurrents surging.
Thinking about the changes in the current situation, Li Zicheng now hopes that Yuan Shikai can recover. Time, historically, God did not give Yuan Shikai time, but now, Yuan Shikai has lived several months longer than in history, and he will have enough time.
? Will you give yourself enough time?
"The great president..."
While sighing, Li Zicheng frowned. Where will he go in the future? Maybe...
The sunlight scattered by the setting sun shines through the thin curtains into the bedroom on the second floor of Jurentang, and complements the faint light of the footlights on the ground beside the door. At this time, standing outside the door of this bedroom, Yuan's wife and concubines
With the children, everyone is waiting anxiously.
From time to time, bursts of painful moans would come from the bedroom.
"This, this is so good!"
Listening to his father's painful groans, Yuan Keding walked around outside the door from time to time, complaining, and when he walked around complaining, his limping look looked a bit funny.
His father's physical condition deteriorated again. In the afternoon, Yuan Keding finally made a decision and agreed to Behiye's suggestion to catheterize his father to alleviate his condition. However, hearing the painful groans coming from the bedroom made him feel uncomfortable.
His son's heart was hanging tight.
In the bedroom, Besigye, a famous French doctor, had already had big drops of sweat on his forehead. This was definitely not because of the heating in the room, but because of nervousness. In order to catheterize Yuan Shikai, Besigye was on his forehead.
Five glass cupping jars were placed on the lower back to conduct urine, but when they were pulled out, they were all filled with blood.
"Um……"
Although he has never shown his weak side in front of others, the pain of catheterization still makes Yuan Shikai moan in pain from time to time. This pain is unprecedented pain, but he still holds on, but the painful expression on his face betrays it.
Got him.
Yuan Shikai, who was sweating in pain on his forehead, looked at the dirty blood and urine mixture dripping out of the catheter bottle. He closed his eyes in pain. He was extremely weak and was using his last bit of energy to fight against the pain coming from his body.
The pain, the struggle with the pain was draining him of energy.
Finally, everything was over. When he could no longer induce bleeding and urine, Bei Xiye looked at the extremely weak Yuan Shikai lying on the bed and sighed in his heart. If he could receive treatment earlier... He felt so sad in his heart.
Thinking about it, Bei Xiye, who had already packed up his equipment, quietly said goodbye to Yuan Shikai and walked out of the bedroom. As soon as he walked out of the bedroom, Yuan Keding greeted him.
"Doctor Besigye, daddy..."
Just when Yuan Keding was trying to figure out his father's physical condition, he heard some weak shouts coming from the bedroom.
"Keding..."
"father!"
Yuan Keding hurriedly walked into the room, only to see his ashen-faced father lying on the bed. Yuan Shikai looked at his son with tired eyes and sighed secretly in his heart.
"Go and invite Yansun, Juren, Zhiquan, etc..."
After saying these words, Yuan Shikai closed his eyes as if he had exhausted all his energy. If it weren't for the painful groan coming from his nose, Yuan Keding might have screamed.
Closing his eyes, although the pain in his body was still tormenting Yuan Shikai, he could clearly realize that maybe he really didn't have much time this time. Some things were better to be arranged early.
But how to arrange it?
If you step down as president, who will be the president?
Out of selfishness, if there were more than a dozen, he would prefer his own son, but now, God has not given him this time. Not to mention Li Zhiyuan and the southern provinces, the Beiyang lineage alone is not Kedingneng.
Pressed down.
Since restraining is not possible, then let Li Zhiyuan do it!
Although he and Li Zhiyuan are political enemies, and he has tried every means to "clip his wings and feathers" in the past two years, at this time, Yuan Shikai had to admit that Li Zhiyuan might be a good candidate, with ability and vision.
There is... and he is young, but... he is too young. Sometimes his methods are a little softer, and he is too kind. How can a kind-hearted and soft-hearted person accept the responsibility of running the country? Those old guys will be in trouble when the time comes.
If he is bullied into being kind, the country will probably be in trouble.
To be continued...
