On the eve of the 190 congressional election

Yuan Shikai was furious and tore the People's Daily to pieces. He suddenly became very melancholy. He sat in the easy chair and stroked his forehead and said, "What did you talk about with Russia?"

Yuan Keding slowly said about the interview between Lu Zhengxiang and the Russian envoy Kupengsky: "The six draft articles of the agreement have been reached. The main contents are: Russia recognizes Outer Mongolia as a complete part of China's territory, respects China's old rights, and China does not change the traditional local autonomy system of Outer Mongolia, and allows it has the right to organize the armed police. Reject the right of non-Mongolian colonization. Russia does not send troops to Outer Mongolia or colonize. China uses its power in Outer Mongolia by peaceful means. China agrees to the business interests given to Russia by the Russo-Mongolian Treaty.

Yuan Shikai half closed his eyes and listened thoughtfully. Qu Ran opened his eyes and said, "In fact, Russia has made no concessions except for some verbal concessions. Such a treaty can only be scolded. What's wrong with Lu Zhengxiang? Aren't he afraid of being scolded as a traitor?

Yuan Keding didn't take it seriously and shook his head and said, "This is already a very generous treaty, which has never been in the pre-Qing Dynasty! Of course, it is naturally inferior to those foreign treaties signed by Li Madman. But it has been enough to achieve this step, make Outer Mongolia cancel its independence, and make Russia recognize Outer Mongolia as China's inherent territory.

"Real?" Yuan Shikai also knew that Lu Zhengxiang had already done his best. Compared with the previous Qing Dynasty's treaty, it was more than a favorable treaty, but the gap between such a generous treaty and those signed by Li Xiang was too obvious.

"Yes!" Yuan Keding nodded nervously.

Yuan Shikai muttered, "In this way... then ask the House of Representatives to consider it secretly, so that the approval and third reading procedures can be omitted."

Congress.

"In order to avoid the misunderstanding that can happen in Mongolia, the conditions of the agreement are as follows," Lu Zhengxiang looked at the congressmen who attended the meeting and stared at him nervously, waiting for the result of the negotiation with Russia. Lu Zhengxiang, who was holding the announcement of the results, couldn't help squeezing a cold sweat and continued: "(I) Russia The state recognizes Mongolia as a complete part of China's territory. Zite promises to continue this territorial relationship without interruption. In addition, Russia has promised to respect all the rights that China was born in this territorial relationship. ( 2) China promises not to change the local autonomy system that has always been owned by Outer Mongolia. And because the Mongols in Outer Mongolia have the responsibility to defend and maintain public order in their territory, they are allowed to have the exclusive power to organize armaments and police, and they have the right to refuse non-Mongolian colonization in their territory. ( III) On the one hand, Russia promised not to send troops to Outer Mongolia except for the guard, and promised not to colonize the land of Outer Mongolia. On the other hand, it would not set up other officials to represent Russia ( 4) China is willing to use its power in Outer Mongolia in a peaceful way, and hereby affirms that it will be handled by Russia. According to the purpose of the above articles, establish the outline of China's measures to deal with Outer Mongolia. ( V) Because China's zheng government attaches importance to the transfer of the Russian government, it allows the business interests opened in Mongolia to the Russians (i.e. the Russian-Mongolian Annex Business Article). ( VI) In the future, if Russia has an agreement with foreign Mongolian officials on changing the international conditions of the system, it must be directly discussed by China and Russia and with the permission of China's zheng government.

Listen, Song Jiaoren's face turned from white to red, and then from red to white... Finally, he suddenly stood up, rushed directly to the podium, threw the treaty text in Lu Zhengxiang's hand to the ground, his lips trembled with anger, and roared, "I want to lose power and humiliate the country!" Congress will never agree to this treaty!"

"According to this Sino-Russian Agreement, it means that China has recognized the Russian-Mongolian Treaty and Mongolia's independence." The radical members of the Kuomintang responded aggressively: "I will never agree!"

Lu Zhengxiang's face, who stood beside Song Jiaoren like a fool and made an explanation, also changed from white to red, and then from red to white... Finally, his lips also trembled and tried to explain: "The reason why this contract is reached is that the land in northern Mongolia is far away, which is not the current financial resources of our country. We can only allow Russia to invite and prepare for another reply in the future."

With that, Lian Lian wink at Yuan Shikai's followers in Congress.

Pu Dianjun immediately stood up: "Our party admits the general amendment of the provisions, and there is no room for this matter to happen."

"What?" A member of the Alliance asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Some young party members of the alliance will scolded angrily: "Speaking such nonsense, it's really heartless to admit this kind of treaty of losing power and humiliating the country!" What benefits did Yuan Shikai give you!"

The Kuomintang firmly opposed this draft: "This is tantamount to cutting off Outer Mongolia."

"Yuan Shikai has no intention to resist foreign aggression, but he is bent on eliminating dissidents. He prevaricates and refuses to maintain his strength. Mongolia can still increase its troops. China is not guarded, but to transfer troops to the south, and the Russians take advantage of it!"

As he spoke, a more radical Kuomintang shouted "Down with Yuan Shikai"!

Song Jiaoren clenched his fist and was inexplicably excited. This was the first test after the establishment of the Kuomintang. It was indeed amazing. He successfully attacked Yuan Shikai's traitor treaty. Although it was far from the responsible cabinet for forming a party, it also closely supervised Yuan Shikai's government, so that he was afraid to act recklessly. I believe that he After that, what should be done also made Yuan Shikai afraid to do it. This is a good omen for the next formal congressional election!

When Sun Yat-sen and Huang Keqiang went north to discuss the country with Yuan Shikai, the two great revolutionarys praised Yuan Shikai and promised him to be rich and powerful for several years in power. Yuan Shikai was easy to get along with Mr. Sun and Mr. Huang. He regarded the alliance as if there was nothing to do, and naturally he was not very repulsed with the Congress. However, this time, Song Jiaoren and the Kuomintang snipe at the draft of the Sino-Russian statement he made, and suddenly found that the Kuomintang had a majority in both houses. The actual leader of the Kuomintang, the acting Prime Minister of the Kuomintang, advocated the saying of "competition for the cabinet and not for the president", as if he was the prime minister of the alternate cabinet. This urgent situation is far beyond Yuan Shikai and Yuan Party's expectation.

"I led the army to level the Senate and the House of Representatives and dissolved the Congress!" Lu Jianzhang's angry blood surged to his face and turned red, expressing his loyalty to Yuan Shikai.

"The wisdom of a man." Yang Du said something unsalty.

Lu Jianzhang's face turned red to pig liver.

The generals of the Beiyang army are also silent. The war in Beiyang is not ready yet. Isn't this a declaration of war in advance? In order to prepare for the civil war, Yuan Shikai urgently needs the understanding and support of the great powers. Therefore, he is eager to end this negotiation as soon as possible. Only by the draft of the Sino-Russian Statement, there is a big loan aftermath. It is really unwise to break the face with the alliance before the understanding and support of the great powers.

Yuan Shikai thought of Song Jiaoren's young and capable and capable look. When he met him several times, he was neither humble nor arrogant. His heart was stuffed with cotton wool and he couldn't say anything. After a long time, he smiled and said, "Well, another disgusting one! A Li Xiang in Hubei and Li Liejun in Jiangxi has been in a hurry, and the Kuomintang has added such a powerful role! Think about it, it's really boring for me as a president.

"It's okay." Yang Du looked back, leisurely took the teacup playing with Longquan porcelain and said, "Today's incident is enough to prove that Song Jiaoren is just a scholar. As long as there is a gun, the president's business will be easy! As for Li Xiang, Li Liejun and other Kuomintang governors, it is not the problem we need to face now. First, they lack influence on the central government, and at most there are only one princes. Second, these local governors are still under the jurisdiction of the central government. If there is really no official's action, they will lose a lot in the name of righteousness. The northern and the northern soldiers and horses are strong, and the thunderous power of the central government must be destroyed?

Yang Du's incisive analysis, Yuan Shikai and other Beiyang martial arts men nodded repeatedly.

"It's just," Yang Du said this, a turning point, "the president doesn't want to fight on the big program of 'congress election', so he must consider the merger of three parties. The official parliamentary election is coming soon, and the political circles are in a state of urgency. All political parties are trying to implement their policies. They should use their most lively and agile wrists to gallop the times, hoping to occupy the highest position in the political world, so as to achieve their great hope and purpose for the future. In the whirlpool of the political tide, the wind and clouds are surging, especially for those who attract the attention of ordinary people, it is the issue of the alliance to reorganize the Kuomintang. From this incident, we can see that the separation of the other three parties will never defeat the Kuomintang in the parliamentary election. The Kuomintang fakes the banner of revolution. It has long wanted to support Sun and Huang to fight for the president and practice arbitrary policies. If the three parties are not consistent today, it will not be easy for the three parties to be vibrating, and the state government will not be on a flat track in the end.

Yuan Shikai's hand shook, hot tea splashed out, splashed it, gritted his teeth and smiled, "I'm not afraid that the Kuomintang will use violence to seize power. I'm afraid that they will win power by legal means!" Xizi, you must help me. You can't do the big event of the merger of the three parties!"

"At this time, the time is not yet ripe, and more members of the three parties will wait and see." Yang Du smiled and said, "It's not to refute the president's face. I can't do this kind of thing! I don't have the organizational talent of Song Jiaoren.

"When did Xizi become so humble?" He touched a soft nail on the spot, and Yuan Shikai couldn't get off the stage.

They have seen Yang Du's wildness. They have never paid attention to the people of the world. They are self-relied in the art of dragon slaughtering, and often sigh that "no hero makes the vertical son famous"! Such people will also admit that there are places that are not as good as others.

"President, I can't, but someone can do it."

"Who?"

"The beam table is like."

"He?"

Yang Du smiled, stood up, walked around the room, and said, "He is the only one who wants the three parties to merge!" ......”

Yuan Shikai has fully understood. Liang Qichao is the only one who wants to find a person who can subdue the three parties. Most of the three parties are disciples of Kang Liang. Apart from him, who else has this influence? Moreover, Liang Qichao is not like his teacher Kang Youwei. After the Xinhai Revolution, Liang Qichao made remarks in support of the republic in Tokyo as the backing of the constitutionalists. He actually forgot such a character. He shouldn't, shouldn't.

"Shuizi, write to him quickly and urge him to return to China as soon as possible!
