Chapter 368 Shaking Fan Military Advisor(1/2)
Chapter 368 The Shaking Fan Military Division
"Do you know? Liang Zhuoru is going to Lianyun!"
Putting down the teacup, Duan Qirui glanced at Xu Shuzheng. In the past few months, Xu Shuzheng has been training his first army in Tianjin. Now he has stepped down from the position of deputy army commander and served as commander of the First Army. Yuan Shikai has no objection to this. In his opinion, this first army will sooner or later be sent to the European frontline to fight. //www.//
"have no idea."
Although he was a little surprised, Xu Shuzheng still smiled faintly:
"This has nothing to do with you and me."
Then Xu Shuzheng said,
"Whether it was done by Yuan Xiangcheng or not, this incident will only benefit Li Lianyun, not harmful. In the past, Yuan Xiangcheng could have given a few ministries to the State Council. Now he wants to do this, Li Lianyun can be said to be injured and not go to the capital. If he doesn't go to the capital for a day, the real murderer behind Yuan Xiangcheng will not be taken off. He will not be able to take off his hat in one day, and neither officials nor the people will agree. The southwestern provinces responded to this fiercely, and the revolutionary party was even more ready to move, intending that if Li Lianyun died, he would be sent to fight against Yuan. At that time, in order to protect himself, he would be afraid that the whole country would respond. At that time, Yuan Xiangcheng would not be a good life! Therefore, Yuan Shikai would definitely make concessions to Li Lianyun, and the State Council would be afraid that it would be a false situation!"
"If this is the case, why doesn't it matter?"
Duan Qirui waved his hand and said:
“It’s a big deal!”
Xu Shuzheng was a little confused: Yuan Xiangcheng wanted to set up a State Council, and all the people agreed. Duan Qirui confessed repeatedly and supported this matter. The reason for this is very simple. If the fisherman wins profits with a snipe and a clam, how could Li Lianyun be willing to be defeated? At that time, the government and the court will be in chaos, and the matter of sending troops in Europe will naturally be delayed.
Now that Yuan Shikai has made concessions, Li Lianyun may go to Beijing to work after he recovers from his injury, which should be a great thing. Why is he "a big relationship" for us? Did Duan Qirui shake his normal belief again? Therefore, Xu Shuzheng calmly waited for Duan Qirui to say a "relationship". Duan Qirui was a little anxious when he saw Xu Shuzheng not speaking. He liked to be straight to the point and could not hide "things" in his stomach. So he clearly said:
"Yuan Shikai may not really want to join hands with Li Lianyun. In the past, he might just want to give Li Lianyun a few imaginary divisions. Now, he doesn't know what divisions he will give up after making concessions. If he gives up several real power departments, the Chishui in the capital will be even more awkward!"
"The real power department? No matter how much it is, it will not be allowed to leave the Army Department. At most, he will give up another Admiralty Department!"
Xu Shuzheng asked casually.
"What if there is another Ministry of Finance?"
Duan Qirui said casually.
"The reason why Liang Zhuoru went to Lianyun was that he brought five departments: Internal Affairs, Finance, Education, Industry and Commerce, Agriculture and Forestry. These five departments were given to the State Council, which was Li Lianyun. Yuan Xiangcheng agreed, but he knew that this matter was not that simple. He was just a offer. Without this offer, Li Lianyun would not come to Lianyungang. The Army Department, Yuan Xiangcheng would definitely not hand over it. Li Lianyun also knew this, but where was the bargaining place? Just for this matter, Yuan Xiangcheng called me over and gave me a clear idea to show his sincerity to us. Now, Yuan Xiangcheng is worth fighting for by Li Lianyun, that is, the Navy Department."
Speaking of this, Duan Qirui stopped talking. He blinked his big and somewhat tired eyes, trying to peek out something from Xu Shuzheng's face.
The boss's words made Xu Shuzheng silent, facing the wall without saying a word, just sitting there quietly.
Seeing his appearance, Duan Qirui was anxious:
"Yes, the problem is in front of you, where can you go? You have to come up with your ideas! Although Li Lianyun is a good person, our Beiyang Group will break the bones and connect the tendons. If Li Lianyun takes over the central government's power, then..."
Xu Shuzheng was still silent - Yuan Shikai gave up Quan, but Yuan was unwilling to accept it. Yuan Shikai refused to give up Quan, Li Lianyun did not come to Beijing, he did not come to Beijing, and he did not make the president's name clear, and the people of the country would not agree. This was what Xu Shuzheng expected.
Now that the "Plexig Assassination case" has caused turmoil in the whole country, Xu Shuzheng also understood in his heart; he also predicted that even if Yuan Shikai was not the one who did this, the revolutionary party would think of him and then put his hat on him. Why did Li Lianyun's people bring the assassin to Lianyun at the first time? Protection is on the one hand, and on the other hand, to use this matter to seek benefits by keeping the results of the investigation confidentiality.
Now, Yuan Shikai felt that the situation was serious and he had to "spoke a secret message" to Li Lianyun, but this "explosion message" might have increased. Xu Shuzheng really didn't expect this.
When the news of Li Lianyun's assassination and injury reached Xu Shuzheng's ears, he had thought seriously and had a full understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Jiangsu Army, he immediately concluded that Li Lianyun had ambitions and ambitions to control 200,000 strong troops, but China's size is not something that can be taken away by 200,000 troops. This time, he was only worried that he would be sad. But Xu Shuzheng also saw that the trend of the Jiangsu Army was unstoppable! He would destroy all the troops that were blocking the front with a destructive force.
A man cannot beat a cannon or a plane!
If the Battle of Lanshan left a impression on Xu Shuzheng, it was probably this impression. As soon as he returned to Beijing, he immediately ordered the Dexian Arsenal to imitate the mortar, and sent more personnel to Nanyuan Airport to learn how to fly, and also discussed with Lianyungang to purchase the plane.
But even so, if the opponent was the Jiangsu Army, he still had little confidence. He had no confidence in his opponent who relied on division firepower on the battlefield in one minute to dump 15,000 shells on the battlefield. Although most of the shells were 60mm and 82mm mortar shells, they were enough to destroy the resistance of most troops.
"Wouldn't it be better if someone else took the banner and overthrew Yuan Shikai and took action first?"
It is precisely because of this that he wanted to mobilize Duan Qirui, and Duan Qirui was carried by Duan Qirui. In the future, he and Duan Qirui will become "anti-dictator heroes." After all, Xu Shuzheng climbed up with Duan Qirui and Yuan Shikai's "rod". Opposing Yuan is equivalent to opposing his "ancestor", and opposing his ancestors is something that the Chinese are unwilling to do; or if it is absolutely necessary, it is something that they are unwilling to do.
Because of this, Xu Shuzheng has been watching the situation quietly and waiting for Li Lianyun to send troops. Once Li Lianyun sent troops, when the Jiangsu Army crossed the Yellow River, the first army stationed in Tianjin and Baoding would immediately turn against each other, turn to Beijing on the grounds of "dictatorship and chaos in politics" and force Yuan Shikai to step down. Subsequently, after Li Lianyun lost the reason for the attack, the boss could take control of the central power. Of course, Xu Shuzheng also had his own share in the central power.
But waiting like this is not a solution. On the one hand, when paying attention to the news of Li Lianyun's injury, he also paid attention to public opinion across the country to decide whether to oppose Yuan first. Just when Xu Shuzheng was hesitant, Duan Qirui came to the door, bringing news that Yuan Shikai was going to make concessions, and he was willing to give up the Ministry of Finance, that key department, and that was just a price.
Xu Shuzheng suddenly felt that Yuan Shikai was so pitiful. His giving in this way was equivalent to dividing the central power into two, Yuan Yi and Li Yi. This made Xu Shuzheng feel embarrassed: Is it pitiful Yuan Shikai, thanking him for his past support and today's sincerity, and helping him with another help? Or follow the trend and oppose him and defeat him?
Hope is too small. Before and after Lanshan, Xu Shuzheng had many conversations with Li Lianyun. The two talked a lot. Li Lianyun was extremely disgusted with the civil war, and it can even be said to be extremely disgusted. It was an instinctive resistance. Perhaps, because of this, Li Lianyun was willing to come to Beijing to serve as the Prime Minister at the cost of giving up the army.
If it weren't for the current "Prince Extraordinary Case", he might have arrived in Beijing.
This means that if Xu Shuzheng took the initiative to fight Yuan, Li Lianyun would inevitably attack him on the grounds of "maintaining the legal system". The reason for his actions is very simple. First, Xu Shuzheng "opened a river of disputes with force", and second, Xu Shuzheng "rebelled". The president was guilty and should be dismissed by Congress. With Li Lianyun's character, he would do this!
What if Yuan is assisted?
What will the final result of this separation of power in the palace and court? If it succeeds, who will take over the ups and downs of China? This is still a mystery. Where will it go? This person, who is called "weird" style, was also indifferent for a while.
In the long history of Chinese, melee can show the true nature of heroes. And all "heroes in troubled times" have almost one common "true scripture", that is, develop yourself, strengthen yourself, and dominate the world with your fists!
Xu Shuzheng claimed to be the "hero of heroes" in China. He wanted to help the lord like Zhang Liang and unify the world. From the day he had the opportunity to capture the First Army, he began to plan to expand his power and harden his fists. He was like a shrewd fisherman, always peering at the huge and thin ripples on the water, waiting to pick up the fishing rod.
Tianjin is not the place where he lived for a long time. "Tianjin only has bright lights and wine, and Tianjin only has giant tycoons. Tianjin is not a country of emperors!"
Xu Shuzheng was in Tianjin but was in Beijing. In theory, Duan Qirui's arrival brought Yuan Shikai's concessions, which brought Xu Shuzheng a brand new news.
Whether it is helping Yuan or opposing Yuan, Duan Qirui will "follow his orders" - Duan Qirui believes in Xu Shuzheng. Duan Qirui often regards Xu Shuzheng as a "talented talent given by heaven". God pity him for "worrying the country and the people" and sends capable people for him. However, this time, Xu Shuzheng was very abnormal. He neither wanted to help Yuan nor oppose Yuan.
After a long silence, Xu Shuzheng slowly spoke:
"At present, we still adhere to our principles and master the first army, and report the direct power of the boss in the army. We cannot express our opinion now. What attitude? How to express our opinion? How to express our opinion? Go on, no, let's talk about it later."
Duan Qirui was silent, and he said to himself, as if he was worried and complaining:
"Don't you express your opinion? Is this a bit of a slaughter? If Li Lianyun really fought with the president in Beijing..."
Xu Shuzheng shook his head and smiled.
"Just just sit firmly on Diaoyutai and cannot die Yuan Xiangcheng, Li Lianyun will not succeed immediately."
After pondering for a moment, Duan Qirui said:
"What you said makes sense. It's just..."
It can be said that Duan Qirui complained about Yuan Shikai since the president set up the general's mansion. It was precisely because of this that he agreed to Xu Shuzheng's suggestion to preside over the First Army and take the opportunity to build his own strength. Xu Shuzheng did not disappoint him. In less than a year, he organized the First Army into a strong army.
Not to mention anything else, the artillery division of the First Army belongs to the Army, which has as many as 36 150mm howitzers, plus the 105mm howitzers are equipped with as many as 72 artillery pieces. Of course, this is the credit of Lianyungang. If the First Army had not supplemented a large number of artillery during the Lanshan Battle, the First Army would not have been able to equip so many artillery. Half of these were supplemented by Lianyungang. After the most admirable battle, Li Lianyun did not mention the return of artillery at all.
Although he admired Li Lianyun's generosity, when Yuan Shikai was in danger, he sent someone to invite him and told him sincerely that he was going to make concessions. In addition to the Ministry of Army and the Ministry of Transport that holds some financial power, several other departments asked Li Lianyun to choose five of them!
Yuan Shikai's words shake Duan Qirui: After all, he has been blessed by Yuan Shikai, and has an old love of sharing honor and disgrace, rising and falling. He thought he had to help Yuan Xiang to the end. Xu Shuzheng's words aroused his thought of "preserving his strength":
"Yes, who will win to death? There is no definite situation yet. It's better to wait for the opportunity."
"It's okay not to express your opinion."
Duan Qirui said:
"How do you go to see Xiang Cheng? What do you say to him?"
"Aren't you sick?"
Xu Shuzheng said casually:
"What do you do when you see him?"
"I can't see Gujia, but I can't recover from the end! Besides, this is the bottom..."
Xu Shuzheng also felt that this was unpredictable, and it was unreasonable to refuse to meet each other suddenly. Moreover, Duan Qirui was still the title of "General of the Army Department", so he had to have a legitimate plan to retreat. Xu Shuzheng thought for a long time and said:
"You don't have to make things difficult for Yuan Xiangcheng. Although it is forced by the situation, it is just a chance to express his opinion to the outside world. You are the one with the highest prestige in the Central Army. If you are on Yuan Xiangcheng's side, you probably will have eliminated the infiltration of the army. I was thinking, we are not careful to make small moves, first call Xiangcheng's heart, and then send troops to Europe to make some moves to let Li Lianyun know our kindness. Isn't this a good idea?
"What action?"
Duan Qirui didn't believe in any action to socialize.
"While satisfying Xiang Cheng, while Li Lianyun understood it, it would be difficult."
"easy!"
Xu Shuzheng smiled slightly and said:
"Why is the president full of confidence and thinks that he can take Li Lianyun down without a single shot?"
"Li Zicheng, this boy treats people sincerely! That boy, if there is nothing else in the past few years, he has made a fortune. He will have to pay as much as hundreds of thousands of dollars in disasters, and donate millions in the Longhai area. There are no hunger or cold beggars. Fame is good, but if it is enough, it will become a burden. If there is no excuse for the assassination case, Li Lianyun, unless he is really seriously injured, he will have to come to Beijing to serve unless he destroys his name himself. This person..."
Shaking his head, Duan Qirui continued.
"Li Lianyun is so famous that she is still in the world for more than a year. This time she is counted as those three shots..."
The advantage of three shots!
Now no one in the country knows that Yuan Shikai wants to hate, and he can only hate why the person who shot did not shoot in the head. If it weren't for the fact that someone was killed or injured at that time, Duan Qirui would have really doubted whether he was shot and whether the assassin was a real assassin.
"It has been a great help to him. At this moment, even if Xiang Cheng doesn't want to, he can only give part of the power to Li Lianyun. At this moment, Lianyun is probably going to become a state affairs!"
Lianyungang is the most famous city in China now, but that city was built by Li Zicheng, and Li Zicheng was formed because of it. People naturally called Li Zicheng Li Lianyun. This title has not been called yet, and perhaps State Li appeared in front of the world again, but this is due to the "three shots!"
"No matter whether he is Li Lianyun or State Li, it is something that can be done!"
Xu Shuzheng snorted coldly.
"We sent people to create public opinion in front of Liang Shiyi, Yang Du and others, saying that as long as Lianyun wants to see Xiangcheng, Xiangcheng can agree to all the requests of Lianyun. At that time, all personnel, finance, and decisions of Xiangcheng will be returned to Lianyun. These people are Xiangcheng's confidants. If Xiangcheng is the leader of Yu Lianyun, they will inevitably interfere and obstruct Xiangcheng's talks with Lianyun. At least they can add some resistance to Li Lianyun. Can't we sit and watch it change!"
"good!"
Duan Qirui slapped the table again.
"Great! Let's just watch him fight with the clam!"
"ah!"
Xu Shuzheng turned silent and said firmly:
To be continued...
