ideal era

156 different numbers

The evening breeze cools, and the sunset is like blood.

Wuchang, Pinghu Gate, Jiang'an Pier.

"After my autobiography got the title of Mr., it was finally published." Lixiang smiled and held a piece of "My Struggle". Whether he was familiar with it or not, Sun Yat-sen and his entourage.

The people who received "My Struggle" all smiled. This is not the cheap "Sanmin Zhuyi" white book that can be seen everywhere on the streets of Wuhan. This is the "gold" version of the "gold" version of the bookcase bag. It is heavy in hand. It's all real gold!

"Oh," Sun Yat-sen weighed the weight of this golden book: "I wrote the preface, but the time is a little short. I haven't read this book carefully yet. I don't know if the article is correct?"

"That's great!" Li wanted to blush with excitement and laughed.

Li Xiang bought all the first 23,000 copies together. Of course, these can't be gold books. Li Xiang doesn't have such a lot of money. It was sent by Li Xiang and his old father-in-law Tang Hualong to friends at home and abroad. Tang Hualong is one of the leaders of the Constitutional Council. He has a wide network. Whether you know him or not, send a copy. Two people sent 3,000 copies easily.

From now on, I'm afraid he will be as famous as Sun Yat-sen!

Li Xiang smiled and took out a pamphlet from his pocket. The first line on the cover was six big characters "Sanmin Zhuyi Thought". On the left, Li Xiang crookedly signed a name: "Li Xiang, editor-in-chief", and stamped a vermilion red seal. Hand your hands to Sun Yat-sen.

Sun Yat-sen took over the white paper "Three People's zhu righteous thoughts" published by Wuchang. It was compiled by Li Xiang himself, and now it is a copy of Ezhou civil servants. However, after listening to many old people in the alliance meeting read this book, they all scolded Li Xiang for revisionism and perverse theory. Mr. Sun Yat-sen's three people's righteous thoughts were completely explained by Li Xiang, which was simply hanging a sheep's head and selling dog meat. Sun Yat-sen has been very busy since he returned to China. He has little time to sit down and read the book. He has not read the "Three People's righteous thoughts" compiled by Li Xiang. In his hand, he turned over curiously casually, but turned out a check of the Yangtze River UnionPay and asked in surprise, "What does this mean?"

"The righteous thought of the three people is the gentleman's idea and the original work of the gentleman. This is the royalty income of publishing this book." Li wanted to say.

Sun Yat-sen took the check, counted the string of zeros, and said, "100,000 rmb, is it so exaggerated? A piece of rmb is a piece of silver, which is a huge sum of money. Does my book sell so well?

Sun Yat-sen's exaggerated appearance attracted the eyes of everyone on the dock.

Miss Song grabbed the check and opened her eyes: "In Europe and the United States, only the most popular writers and best-selling books have such a huge royalty income!"

Li Xiang laughed and said, "After my husband was elected as the first president of the Republic of China, this book has sold well at home and abroad. I expect that the sales of reprints will increase next year!"

All the population is dry, envious and jealous. Is there such a rich way to write books? Sun Yat-sen doesn't have to do anything in the future. Collecting royalties is enough to spend a lifetime.

Miss Song's eyes were full of love and looked at Sun Yat-sen.

"I want to donate this money. This is my national donation." Sun Yat-sen stepped on the deck and said, "You don't have to give me royalties in the future. Li Shuai will set up a fund like a foreign Nobel on my behalf."

"Yes!" Li wanted to shout.

Sun Yat-sen climbed to the deck and looked around, only to see warships protruding from the water like islands. There was a desolate and tragic sound of the army trumpet in the dawn.

"Yuan Shikai can never be trusted. Li Shuai, the army must not be abolished." Hu Hanmin was ready to get on the boat, and he couldn't help turning back and whispered to Li Xiang, "In my opinion, not only can it not be cut, but it should also be abandoned to prevent mutations."

Hu Hanmin and Li Liejun were the most motivating to oppose the disarmament of the South. Seeing that Li wanted to foolishly publish the "Ten Crimes Telegram", took the initiative to disarmament and engage in the separation of military and civilian power, they couldn't help persuading.

Li Xiang laughed and said, "Sir, I don't think things will get so bad. Besides, people are at ease now and people are tired of war. If they expand their troops at this time, I'm afraid they will not only be suspected by the central government, but also the people will be deeply disturbed."

Hu Hanmin said urgently, "Why are you smart and confused for a while? Haven't you seen Yuan Shikai's conspiracy?"

Li Xiang smiled coldly, "What if you can see it? At the beginning, if our revolutionaries could unite as one, the allied forces went north, killed Zhili, and carried out the revolution to the end. There is still today's situation. The current situation is different from the past, and the form of struggle should also be changeable. I think it should be solved through political means at present.

Hu Hanmin suppressed his anger and whispered, "Yuan Shikai is cunning and deceitful. If you don't believe it, you should prepare for the military."

Li Xiang curled his lips and said, "I think Hu Dudu is too worried. Yuan Shikai is just playing with power, and he won't go against it..."

"How do you know that he won't be rebellious?" Hu Hanmin questioned.

Li Xiang scolded in his heart. What if he did was rebellious? I didn't want to be the first bird. The secret accumulation of strength was to beat the gongs and drums like him and Li Liejun. I was afraid that Yuan Shikai didn't know your strange intentions. What's the need!

......

At this time, Yuan Shikai lacked funds, the big loan had not yet been established, and his strength was insufficient. In addition to the supervision and public opinion of the south to compress the establishment as much as possible, he was still unable to manipulate the southern armies. Therefore, the provinces still have relatively independent power over the dismissal of the army. However, the political conditions of each province are different, and the policies and methods of disarmament are also different.

After Cheng Dequan received the Nanjing Left-behind House, he was "implemented" in accordance with Huang Xing's disarmament plan. After the failure of the "reversal journey", Chen Qimei was also forced to resign as the governor of Shanghai, and the army received it. Cheng Dequan relied on the central government to help and was demobilized. In addition to the Yangzhou Second Army and the Eighth Division, the Soviet army was actually less than 40,000, which was reorganized into the third division and the second independent brigade. The 19th Division of Qingjiang originally planned to be dismissed, but it was temporarily retained for the time being due to the need to suppress bandits. In order to stabilize the situation, Cheng Dequan, in addition to being the commander of the second division in Suzhou at that time, Cheng Dequan still served as the commanders of the first and third divisions in Nanjing and Xuzhou with the revolutionary party Zhang Zi and Leng Yu, and refused the request of the War Department to re-use Zhang Siqi, Yin Tongyu, Zhu Zhixian and others. The situation of all factions in Jiangsu has been maintained, which is also the way for Cheng Dequan to find a balance between the Alliance and Beiyang and obtain the detached position accepted by both sides.

Hubei is different. It is the district of Shouyi. There are already many troops. In addition, there are meritorious personnel in the position of the uprising. During the Western Expedition, the army was expanded to eight towns. Li wants to make poor progress in disarmament because he can't receive 1.5 million yuan from the central government. The Ministry of the Army allowed Hubei to retain the third division. Due to many difficulties, it had to ask for the formation of the fifth division. Li wanted to instruct Li Yuanhong to send a telegram to Beijing: "Hubei has been advocating righteousness since the autumn. The army is very complicated. After being eliminated, there are still eight divisions left. Although the number of soldiers is less than the eight divisions, the number of officers and commanders is available, and the whole department is full of contributing personnel. At present, it is planned to be merged into the fifth division, and there are still many constraints. If the third division, it will be more difficult."

Since Hu Hanmin was reinstated as governor of Guangdong, military power is still in the hands of Chen Jiongming. Although Hu and Chen are both members of the revolutionary party, there are repeated frictions. The army adapted by Xunjun has different character, different ages, and lacks combat effectiveness. The remnants of the civilian army were reorganized into the 104th Battalion of the Guards, which is of a local police force. When the Nanjing Left-behind Office was disarmament, the two divisions of the Guangdong Army stationed in Jiangsu, with military commander Yao Yuping and e-commerce Hu Hanmin, planned to return to Guangdong to garrison in the areas of Gaozhou and Lianzhou. However, Chen Jiongming's selfishness is too heavy, and he supports the soldiers and obstructs them. Yao Yuping then made a consultation with his subordinates, and the whole army was disbanded. Yao Preservation's well-trained artillery battalion also disarmed Chen's troops after returning to Guangdong. The Northern Expedition Guangdong Army is an elite division with combat effectiveness. It is a failure to disband in this way. After Chen Jiongming was appointed by Yuan Shikai as the envoy of Guangdong, he continued to preside over the dismissal of as many as the 12th and 3rd battalions, and the total number of the 1st brigades of the 2nd Division of the Army have escaped, died, injured and retired, with more than half of the vacancy.

After Bai Wenwei became the governor of Anhui, he transferred the Fourth Division and Zhang Huitao Brigade, the Huaishang Army, and the Shouzhou Uprising Force to Anhui. The Ge Yinglong Brigade of Bai's headquarters was also transferred to Anhui by Sun Yat-sen's order. 1. After the Ninth Division returned to Jiangsu, Bai promised to subsidize Jiangsu military benefits from Anhui. All this has aroused strong opposition from Anhui gentry. Because Duan Qirui is from Anhui and has a great influence in the military field of Anhui, he sent his proud disciple Wu Zhongying as the military and political secretary of Anhui. Wu rejected the revolutionaries and repeatedly clashed with the generals of Huai. Bai Wenwei is under great pressure. The Ministry of War determined Anhui Province as a division and a brigade, and Bai disbanded the first army, leaving only in the name of the commander. In order to place officers, it is tentatively designated as the second division and one brigade, and the actual number of soldiers is the first division and one brigade. More than 30,000 people have been laid off and more than 2,000 officers have been abolished. The Yuan government allocated 500,000 yuan to continue the sanctions. After the completion of the reorganizing, the former Anhui army was reorganized into a division. Hu Wantai, the son of Hu Dianjia, the general of the Huai Army, was the division commander, and the fourth division was reduced into a brigade and stationed in Linhuai. Bai's strength is seriously damaged. However, Bai Wenwei resisted the pressure of the Army Department to lay off the Huaishang Army and reorganized the Huaishang Army into a reclamation force and stationed on the front line of Shouzhou. Only Zhang Huitao was forced to leave the army.

Li Liejun, the governor of Jiangxi Province, is the most troublesome for Yuan Shikai. Li is not only committed to laying off the army composed of vagrants, rectifying military discipline, and suppressing mutiny, but also attaching great importance to the army's supplementary training and preparing for war. He demobilised all the 36th Battalions of the Defense Army, and the 16th New Army, which was expanded after 1911, was also cut in half and formed into four brigades, with no divisions for the time being. After that, Li continued to demobilify the team of soldiers formed by Hongjianghui and recruit them separately. At the same time, in order to strengthen his strength, he agreed to transfer the guard regiment of Lin Hu's left-behind office, which had combat effectiveness but no belonging to Jiangxi. Lin Hu arrived in Jiangxi, and then assigned a regiment and organized it into a brigade. On the one hand, he bought firearms and strengthened his armaments, and on the other hand, he mobilized dissident generals to strengthen his control over the army. Li also transferred the fourth brigade of Cai Sen from the provincial capital to Ganzhou. Later, he transferred Yu Hesong, the commander of the second brigade, to Beijing as a representative of the governor. Liu Huaisen, the commander of the third brigade, was transferred as a military adviser, and Lin Hu and Ouyang Wu were promoted to brigade commanders.

Sun Yat-sen left Wuchang and went down the river. When he arrived in Nanchang, Li Liejun accompanied him to inspect Sun Yat-sen in Jiangxi and proofread the army, which was unique and very eye-catching at that time. In order to enrich the army, Li also issued a conscription order to recruit indigenous farmers into the army and transform the quality of the army. He refused the request of the Ministry of War to reduce the Jiangxi Army into one division and one brigade, and organized them into two divisions, with Yu Yinglu and Liu Shijun as division commanders.

Because of this, Yuan Shikai's hatred for Li Liejun far exceeds that of the most powerful madman in the south.

......

Yuan Shikai sat cross-legged with his legs numb. He stayed on the ground casually and suddenly smiled and said, "I heard that you are Li Liejun's classmate at the Japanese non-commissioned officer school?"

Hearing Yuan Shikai's question, Yu Hesong, the former commander of the Third Brigade of Jiangxi, quickly got up and nodded repeatedly. Yu He Matsumoto, a Japanese non-commissioned officer classmate of Li Liejun, was transferred to Beijing by Li Liejun and lost his real power. Therefore, he was very dissatisfied with Li and went to Yuan Shikai's way.

Yuan Shikai is looking for it.

Yang Du, Yang Shiqi and Yuan Keding quickly exchanged glances. Yuan Keding put his hands on his knees and said, "You and Li Liejun are classmates. He is now the governor of Jiangxi. What are you now? You were bullied by Li Liejun. Do you want to go back to Jiangxi for revenge? Do you want to take back the rights you deserve?

Yu Hesong's breathing became heavy.

"Come on." Yuan Shikai waved his hand, and a bodyguard came over, holding a small box in his hand, " Give it to him."

The bodyguard held the box to Yu Hesong. Yu Hesong held it in his hands. He was heavy and didn't know what it was. Yuan Shikai smiled and said, "This money is the activity fund for you to go back to Jiangxi. Now, even if you want money, you can't do anything without money.

Yang Du was stunned when he saw Yu Hesong and said with a smile, "Don't look at us and the president every day, we don't have such a generous activity fund!" This is a strange situation. The president treats you well and helps you return to Jiangxi. Why don't you thank me?"

"Yes, this is an alien number." Yuan Shikai stared at the distance and seemed to be looking at something. "Hubei Li madman showed his loyalty to me and issued a 'Ten Sins Telegram', but I didn't give him a penny."

Speaking of "Madman Li", Yuan Shikai thought of the Ezhou Revolutionary Army, and his heart twitched. The war with the Ezhou Revolutionary Army was a variable that he could not master in the wind and clouds of 1911. He didn't say anything. He was just distracted and said for a long time, "I'm really tired today, and I'm not energetic. Yu Hesong. Remember, if you are in Jiangxi, just put down your bold work. If you are short of money, I'll give it to you. If something happens, I'll take care of it for you!"

Yu Hesong was so ecstatic that he lay on the ground and kowtowed and said, "I dare not obey the president's instruction!"

Yuan Shikai nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's late at night. Let's break up."
