    Li Yuanhong¡¯s fear is not unreasonable.

    ??For a dynasty, the biggest crime is rebellion, and the biggest rebellion is to proclaim the king, found the country, and change the name of the Yuan Dynasty.  Once this happens, it means that you are incompatible with the old dynasty and intend to replace it. The old dynasty will naturally not give up and will definitely concentrate all its efforts on launching a fatal attack on you.  This is why the nine-character strategy Zhu Sheng gave to Zhu Yuanzhang included "slowly becoming king".

    Isn't this group of "the Republic of China" and "Yellow Emperor" named "the Republic of China" and "Yellow Emperor Era" who did not know the height of height and the earth.  It's just a matter of seeking death, the key is to involve yourself.  I think when others see this notice, they will definitely say: "I didn't expect that Commander Li is also a revolutionary party!" In this case, can I still survive?

    But no matter how scared Li Yuanhong was in Wuchang City, the notice had spread to Beijing as quickly as possible with the news that "on the night of the 18th, revolutionary bandits created chaos".

    Since Xuantong, the biggest gain of the Manchu nobility was the seizure of the military power of Han bureaucrats.  When establishing a responsible cabinet, one will naturally not take out the fat from the bowl. Therefore, Article 14 of the "Cabinet Official System" promulgated by the Qing court clearly stipulates:

    ¡°For matters related to military orders, except for special orders submitted to the cabinet for discussion, the Minister of War and the Minister of the Navy shall make their own instructions. After the orders are handled, they will be reported to the Prime Minister of the Cabinet.¡±

    In the cabinet at that time, the Minister of War was Yinchang, the Minister of Navy was Zai Xun, and the Prime Minister was Yi Kuang. In other words, military affairs could be handled by these three Manchus with full authority, including all four Han cabinet ministers.  No one else can interfere.

    The Manchu nobles felt that this was not safe. On the day of the establishment of the Responsible Cabinet, they also established a Military Consultative Office in charge of national military affairs. The county princes Beile Zaitao and Beile Yulang served as Military Consultative Ministers, completely getting rid of the interference of the Han people.  Major military matters such as "removing bandits and creating chaos" must first go through the Military Consultative Office controlled by the royal family.

    What a coincidence.  At this time, Zai Tao, as the Minister of the Autumn Exercise Parade, was in Yongping, Zhili, hundreds of miles away, supervising the military exercises of the New Army and the Imperial Guard. Only Yu Lang remained in the capital.  On the morning of the second day of the Wuchang Uprising, the Military Consultative Office received a telegram from Hubei. Yulang was at a loss what to do. He hesitated for a long time before saying: "This should be a matter of the cabinet. We don't need to worry about it. Let the cabinet handle it!" That's it!  , the matter was brought to the cabinet with one word.

    Yikuang did not dare to neglect, and immediately called Yinchang and Zaixun to hold an emergency meeting to discuss how to put an end to the chaos.  Yi Kuang was the Prime Minister of the Cabinet, so naturally he could not lead the army on the expedition; Zai Xun was the Minister of the Navy, but Hubei was an inland province, relying only on the river but not the sea. In this case, the only way for the army to go south was by the Minister of War, Yin Chang.

    Yinchang, as the commander-in-chief, is reasonable. It is not the key to the problem. The key is where to mobilize the troops.  Yinchang is not the Sun Wukong. He can sweep the world with just a golden hoop, and he can turn out thousands of monkeys and monkeys by pulling out his hair.  So he needs a lot of troops.

    Yinchang was grumbling after getting this hard job, and complained to Yikuang: "Prince Qing, the cabinet asked me to quell the rebellion, but I don't have a single soldier in my hands to mobilize. What can I do? A clever woman can't make a meal without rice.  ah!"

    Yikuang just stroked his beard and said nothing.

    Zaixun, on the other hand, chimed in and said, "Both the New Army and the Imperial Guard have been ordered to go to Yongping, Zhili, to participate in the Luanzhou Autumn Exercises. Luanping is too far away from Hubei, and they are already tired of traveling and traveling, so it may not be easy for them to change. In my opinion, that's not the case.  It would be better to mobilize troops from Henan, Jiangsu, and the capital to respond to Hubei. In the future, based on the development of the situation, we will decide whether to mobilize new troops to go south. What does King Qing think?"

    Although Yikuang and brothers Zaifeng, Zaitao and Zaixun were from the same royal family, he was on good terms with Yuan Shikai. However, Zaifeng and others hated Yuan Shikai deeply. As a result, it was inevitable that they would not deal with each other.  As time passed, the gap became deeper and deeper. Yikuang had been wary of them for a long time. When Zai Xun said this, he was afraid that their brothers would take the opportunity to mobilize the army to deal with him, so he snorted coldly: "Xun Beile, Henan belongs to the hinterland of the Central Plains, Jiangsu  It¡¯s all about wealth, and the capital is the most virtuous region. How can the armies of these three places be mobilized at will? If revolutionary bandits make trouble again in these three places, I¡¯m afraid the world will be corrupted beyond control.¡±

    Zai Xun asked, "What does King Qing mean?"

    But Yikuang looked at Yinchang: "Wulu, if I remember correctly, it should be the responsibility of the Military Consultative Office to organize the army, right? In that case, why should the cabinet overstep its authority?"

    In this way, Yi Kuang threw the matter back to the Military Consultation Mansion.

    Wearing a long robe, a mandarin jacket, and long military leather boots, Yinchang quickly arrived at the Military Consultation Mansion.  As soon as he saw Yulang, Yinchang put on the three-faced look in Peking Opera and said in a nonchalant accent: "Langbeile, I'm here from a certain family!"

    Yulang clasped his fists quickly: "Brother Wulou, what kind of wind brought you here today?"

    &nbs"Uh" Sun Yuanqi felt that he was indeed at a loss. He rubbed his hands and said with a smile, "Then I will find some helpers for you."

    "Where to find it?" Yang Du asked.

    "School, there are many students in the School of Liberal Arts and the School of Chinese Studies who are very knowledgeable!" Sun Yuanqi is very confident in the students in the school.

    Yang Du put his hand on his forehead: "Are you causing trouble?"

    Sun Yuanqi had no choice but to ask tentatively: "Then Xizi, can you please do it yourself? You have the final say about salary and everything else."

    Yang Du nodded helplessly: "Okay!"

    After some time, Yang Duzhen helped Sun Yuanqi find several staff members. One was named Yang Yongtai, also named Changqing, who was in his early thirties, from Guangdong; the other was named Chen Xiangyun, whose given name was Qiuzhai, who was only in his twenties and from Zhejiang.  ; There is also Chen Xun'en, named Yanji, also from Zhejiang, younger, only twenty years old.  Although Sun Yuanqi had never heard of their names from the past to the present, their arrival did make everyone feel less courageous.

    But in Yang Du¡¯s view, these are not enough. According to his idea, cabinet ministers should have more than ten or twenty staffs, right?  Sun Yuanqi was speechless and could only let him deal with it: Anyway, we have a bank and we are not short of money!  Can¡¯t we afford the salaries of more than ten or twenty people?

    At this moment, Sun Yuanqi frowned deeply while reading the information.  As the chief of staff in everyone's mind, Yang Du asked: "Baixi, what's the problem?"

    Sun Yuanqi was worried and shook the telegraph newspaper in his hand: "According to the news, many students from Hubei Higher Industrial School and Lianghu Normal School participated in this uprising. After a fierce battle all night, I don't know if there were many student casualties!"

    Yang Du shook his folding fan: "The battlefield is ruthless, and guns have no eyes. In a war, you kill me, and I kill you. Even if there are casualties, who can be blamed?"

    Sun Yuanqi said: "Then we should do something, right?"

    Yang Du waved his hand: "Now that the situation in Wuchang has been temporarily calm, the next step depends on what the court will do. At least there will be no large-scale fighting in Hubei in the next ten days. All we have to do is wait."

    "Wait?" Sun Yuanqi was a little confused.

    Yang Yongtai chatted at the side: "Yes, just wait! Wait and see which troops the imperial court will send south to quell the rebellion, and who will be sent out of the capital to supervise the division. If the Ninth Town, the Thirteenth Mixed Association, and the Third  It will take at least more than ten days to organize the 23rd Mixed Association, the 29th Mixed Association in Henan, and the 31st Mixed Association in Anhui into an army. If the new Beiyang Army is mobilized, I am afraid that Taobele and Lambele will  , the commander of Yinwu Tower cannot move, then it is a good opportunity for Yuan Xiangcheng to come out, and inevitably there will be another struggle for power. In short, we just need to wait and see what happens. "

    Since everyone¡¯s intention is to wait, Sun Yuanqi can only wait. Anyway, he doesn¡¯t have any good ideas.

    Just one day later, I learned that the imperial court was going to dispatch the New Beiyang Army to go south. According to Yang Yongtai, Yuan Shikai was about to jump out.  In this way, history seems to have no deviation.

    Just that evening, a rare visitor came to Sun¡¯s house: Mr. Williams, the U.S. Charge d¡¯Affaires in China.  (To be continued.
