155 ten sins

Miss Song walked in with all kinds of amorous feelings and heard Li Xiang say:

"... Today's national donation officials are discussed and the change of donation... After the establishment of the Nanjing Provisional Government, hundreds of thousands of soldiers were raised, and they had to prepare for the Northern Expedition. However, the government was empty, so all kinds of fund-raising campaigns were surging. When they went out for a day, they were sure to meet dozens of people who persuaded donations and were forced to donate and extorted. Many people are scared when they hear the word "donation". Now the national donation proposed by Mr. Sun and Huang has at least three characteristics: (1) the whole country is unified; (2) ordinary people's donations are limited to one yuan, and the poor do not donate; (3) the rich are progressive, and donations are linked to the industry..."

As Sun Yat-sen, the downed president, and Huang Xing, who left Nanjing, who left office, had no great appeal, and Yuan Shikai secretly destroyed it. There were very few people who responded, and the military pay could not be maintained, which made it very passive.

When Li Xiang said this, he looked at Sun Yat-sen in the living room through the door frame.

Tang Zaili, Fan Yuanlin, Zhang Daxin and Wang Yi Tang went to Wuhan with Yuan Shikai's handwritten letter and invited Sun Yat-sen to visit Beijing. Sun Yat-sen is talking to them in the living room.

Miss Song sat down on the sofa opposite Li Xiang and said, "My Li Shuai, you want to borrow money from foreigners, but tens of millions, you have to offset the railway tariffs and so on, and they have to supervise the finances. If we borrow the debt of our 40,000 compatriots, we only need to take out one yuan, and there will be 40,000 yuan. Don't take anything against it. If you can't afford a poor pen, but there are tens of thousands of rich people to offset it, there are a few money guards who refuse to take it out. You can tell him that the foreign goods you buy every year are at least dozens of yuan, which are all thrown to foreign countries. If you don't have the day to pay you back, shouldn't you borrow some from the country? And it's not a good thing to be hanged. Isn't it a good thing to return it to you every few years?

Miss Song said it well.

"This is not good." Li Yuanhong, sitting by the window, smiled and said, "At present, most of the rich rooms in the country are hiding in foreign concessions as a talisman and foreign banks as their collections. The rest of the mainland are just daily sporadic spot goods and real estate such as land and houses. If you take away the capital of life with the power of coercion, I'm afraid that the people in the middle and lower society will inevitably move into the concession, and the whole country will be turbulent, and a big disaster will come.

"It is not necessary for the rich gentry to pledge. If there is no butcher, just eat a hairy pig? There are 40,000 people in the country, and the majority of civilians are still there. Miss Song said in a negative way. As long as one yuan per person, the current situation can be solved.

Li Xiangyou stared at Miss Song and said, "A young lady like you doesn't know the hardships of civilian life at all. What are you talking about? One person donates one yuan, but when I came back, I saw how many people in those towns along the Yangtze River planted grass to sell their children! This is what happened after the Nanjing Provisional Government issued a ban on the sale of people. Last winter, dozens of hungry corpses were collected in three towns in Wuhan. This is still the time for us to help, otherwise we don't know how much we will starve to death? What a lament!"

Li Xiang glanced at Miss Song and then said, "I also saw a father and a daughter. The child was so hungry that his face was pale, and there was a straw sign on his head. When he saw me approaching, he thought it was the buyer. He was shocked and afraid. He trembled and threw himself into the old man's arms and cried hoarsely, 'Dad, don't sell me. I can weave straw mats and cook. I beg. Being a child bride... OK... You... You don't feel sorry for me!' While crying, he grabbed the old man... Miss Tang immediately took 20 yuan and gave it to them, and she didn't dare to look at them..."

Hearing this, several people were moved.

"The book "My Struggle" you mentioned, while the iron is hot, let the gentleman have a look and publish it!" Miss Song changed the topic and said, "As soon as this book is released, Li Shuai will shock the world again!"

"He is very busy," Li Xiang frowned and said, "All day long, either in a meeting or writing an article. Otherwise, pull me to discuss national affairs, and I'm worried that I don't have a chance..."

"Give it to me," Miss Song stretched out her hand and said, "I'll read it for you first. Maybe there's something inappropriate in it. Don't make this old man angry. Anyway, it's no problem for him to write a preface. I still have some face.

Beijing. Iron Lion Hutong, the Grand Presidential Palace.

"Chen Qimei used the vanguard regiments mastered by Liu Chenglie, Kuai Ji Tang, Kuai Zuotong and Zhu Baocheng to unite the 45 and 46 bids of the original New Army stationed in Suzhou, and prepared to launch a mutiny and drive Cheng Dequan out of power when the conditions were ripe. Huang Xing proposed to resign and recommended Cheng Dequan to take over the left-behind office, and Jiangsu will be completely controlled by Cheng Dequan. Chen Qimei then decided to make a difficult journey. Liu Chenglie and others organized a "washing party" to lead this action. On June 1, the pioneer group first drove away Cheng Dequan and took Chen Qimei as the governor of Jiangsu. When Chen was not in Suzhou, Liu Chenglie acted as the governor of Jiangsu. Yuan Keding said, "However, due to the lack of opportunity, it was frustrated by Cheng Dequan. Kuai Ji Tang, Kuai Zuo Tong, Cheng Hong and Wu Kangshou were arrested and killed. The vanguard regiment was surrounded and disarmed. Liu Chenglie escaped, and Zhu Baocheng was sentenced to eternal imprisonment.

Yuan Shikai frowned and kept meditating.

Yuan Keding didn't know what the old man was thinking, because he continued to say, "After dealing with the "washing meeting" incident in Suzhou, Cheng Dequan was ready to go to Nanjing to receive military and political matters of the left-behind government. At this time, Tan Renfeng, Fan Guangqi and others, and the Nanjing branch of the League Association fantasize about letting his father Huang Xing replace Cheng Dequan as the governor of Jiangsu, which is like letting the defeated generals fight again.

Yuan Shikai sneered and said, "They think it's beautiful."

Yuan Keding said, "Tan Renfeng sent a telegram saying: Recently, Xu Huang's petition was cancelled, and with more than 10 divisions who have not been paed for two months, the governor of the old sick Long Zhongzhidu, dare you believe that he can maintain the status quo? The southeast shakes, and the north follows. How can we imagine the future of the Republic of China! If you beg to take back the order, or the reform committee is left as the governor of Jiangsu, the crisis situation can still be supported. The revolutionary party has no intention to support troops for self-defense. For example, it is doubtful to use slanderous words, and it is afraid that it will delay the world... Fan Guangqi and the Nanjing branch of the League also called Yuan Shikai respectively to ask for Huang Xing to be appointed as the governor of Jiangsu. The words are fierce!"

"Joke! Huang Xing resigned himself, but no one forced him. Yuan Shikai laughed and said, "You go and call back, and say like this: This time, the cancellation of stay is because of Huang Jun's repeatedly call, and there is nothing to stay. He participates in the implementation of unified righteousness, so he can't bear to force his prosperity. To Cheng Dudu received the army, that is, Huang Jun repeatedly tried his best to protect it, and said that the army in the south would never be affected by it. The call is said that the government is suspicious of heroes and takes advantage of old age. It is not known that it is true. With the unification of the north and the south, we are overwhelmed with opinions. It is not appropriate to feel evil and be slandered by the slanderers. I hope to do my best to maintain the overall situation.

"Madman Li sent a telegram in response to disarmament!" Yuan Keding said, "It's just that there are conditions attached to the back, asking for 1.5 million yuan."

"It's too bad!" When Yuan Shikai heard the request, he burst into flames, "Do I think I'm the God of Wealth? No! He has the most troops in all provinces. I'll see how long he can raise in a Hubei Province!"

Yuan Keding shrank his neck and said, "Madman Li also raised the issue of the division of the military and the people. He listed some chaotic phenomena that temporarily occurred during the revolutionary period in Hubei. He believed that soldiers were in politics, full of malpractices, and advocated general affairs and civil affairs, which were divided into two paths.

Yuan Shikai suddenly became quiet. For a long time, he suddenly smiled and said, "No matter what the madman Li is thinking, this is a good thing. It is a good opportunity to deprive the rights of the members of the League."

Yuan Shikai highly appreciated the idea of Li Madman and tried to implement it immediately.

......

Nanchang, Jiangxi. The Governor's Office.

Li Liejun stood up and took the lead in opposing it. He telegraphed everywhere and talked about Sun Yat-sen's strategy for the founding of the country. He said that the revolutionary method was originally divided into three periods: military politics, law and constitutional politics. The post-revolutionary situation required "military power to protect order and reform in order in order". Therefore, the first governor of the governor "n't abrut abrut abrut abolition at present" and "should take over the power of a province".

Then, Hu Hanmin, the governor of Guangdong, who accompanied Sun Yat-sen's visit in Wuhan, took the lead in responding by telegram, saying, "With the non-national foundation, the Zongshe Party has no way to incite it, and it is not appropriate to divide the military and the people." In his long telegram on the centralization of power and the decentralization of local power in detail, in response to Yuan Shikai's hidden intentions, he further proposed that the central government should give provincial governors the power of military and government and finance, so that they can lay down the army by themselves, sort out the finances, first restore the old regulations, and then Xu Tu's fundamental plan. It is not appropriate to borrow a lot and manipulate the provinces with financial power.

In order to resist Yuan Shikai's control, the two of them not only openly worked as provincial governors and jointly resisted the "segregation of the military and the people", but also secretly contacted the southern provinces in an attempt to establish a response alliance. Li Liejun once secretly telegraphed Hu Jingyi, acting governor of Sichuan, and Zhang Peijue, the head of civil affairs, said: "All of you... are all in order to create the giants of the Republic of China, dare to ask for sincere contact, form the most stable political and military groups, and carry out the central government to do the same. If the government can take the premise of the country's interests and the people as the premise, it will maintain support and assist each other. If the government has selfishness and imposes autocracy in the name of unification, it can only work together to practice correct it. Always use local supervision to help the government, do not let the government manipulate the local government, do not lose power to outsiders, fall into autocracy, all kinds of dangers may be eliminated.

Sun Yat-sen took a firm support attitude towards the correct position of Li and Hu. He found Li Xiang and said, "Centralization and decentralization of power are not a problem, but the opponents take advantage of it. ... Because of this, you can't stick to it. Civil rights are natural and righteous, and it is difficult to survive in the 20th century.

......

The Beijing Senate held a secret high-level meeting to discuss and sort out military issues.

"To support the current finances and restore local order, we must start from the demobilization of the army." Duan Qirui, the commander-in-chief of the army, personally attended the explanation of the government's disarmament plan. He said, "Now we set a standard among the standards, that is, based on the original military quota and rates of each province, the more the soldiers are cut, the more the more the original amount is. If it actually has to increase to the original amount, the governor of the province will explain the reason, and with the approval of the finance, army and staff, it can also be increased.

That is to say, most of the troops recruited in the Xinhai Revolution in the southern provinces will be laid off. Most people are not very clear about Yuan Shikai's conspiracy, and the Senate is supportive.

An alliance will rush to stand up and scold: "The North is adding more troops day by day. How can the South be a dictatorship? Even Changyan, we don't judge the troops. I'm afraid the president will be the emperor."
